[comp.os.vms] VAXLAB computer system

R112101@UMNDUL.BITNET (04/20/87)

Does anyone have experience using the VAXlab system sold by DEC? In
particular, I want to know if REGIS will work on the 19" monitor  and
if not, is it possible to put up a cursor for data selection purposes?

A VAXlab is a VAXStation with additional hardware and software; it runs VWS.
ReGIS isn't available.

There are several ways to use cursors for data selection.  At the base level,
VWS can do this.  At least two things built on top of ReGIS also do this:
GKS and, at a more basic level, the Tektronix emulator.
