[ I have been asked, as part of the posting for "psterm" in the Usenet newsgroup comp.sources.unix to post this announcement here. My apologies to John Gilmore and company for losing some of their exact wording. -rich $alz ] The Grasshopper Group took Sun's psterm and worked it over to make a much better terminal emulator for NeWS. We also worked with Sun to clarify the copyright to make it clear that it can be redistributed by anyone on any machine. This package has been posted to the Usenet newsgroup comp.sources.unix, which is available as the mailing list unix-sources@brl.mil (contact unix-sources-request@brl.mil). This note is being posted as a followup-to the source posting; vnews users can use "p" to get to the code. This psterm has: scroll bars whole screen font changes and variable width fonts whole screen point size changes resizing can change rows/cols *or* point size rectangular and "hot" selections numerous bug fixes (more will be needed) The Grasshopper Group modifications to psterm are by Eric Messick, from designs by ||ugh Daniel & Eric Messick. The installation has been tested on SunOS4.0 on Sparc and 68020 and A/UX on the Machintosh-II. We encourage you to use and improve it; send us back the changes. Send flowers, brickbats, picture postcards and diff files to: tech@toad.com or to Grasshopper Group, 212 Clayton St., San Francisco, CA 94117. -- Please send comp.sources.unix-related mail to rsalz@uunet.uu.net.
