We have need of a PC Telnet implementation which includes having the terminal emulation component cover Tektronics 4014-style graphics. Since this is a quite common feature in terminal emulators for an RS232 port, it seems reasonable that it would be available for TCP Telnet as well. Does anyone have any pointers? -------

Many people require terminal emulators that exist in the RS232 realm to work on Telnet. One solution to this problem is the product BWCOM from Beame & Whiteside software Ltd. . It allows interupt driven RS232 terminal emulators to run Telnet over an ethernet. The serial terminal emulator thinks it's talking to a Hayes compatible modem. - Carl Beame BEAME@MCMASTER.BITNET

How could one get in touch with B&W Ltd. to get more info and also possibly purchase the product? Joel Garrett garrett@udel.edu

Our PC/TCP comes with "glass" versions of Telnet and Rlogin. These contain no terminal emulation of their own, and do all I/O via the MS/DOS console devie (CON). If a terminal-emulating device driver is present (like ANSI.SYS), whatever emulation it provides is passed the Telnet data stream, and keyboard input gets passed through it too. We don't sell any drivers to go with this, but we do have one public-domain one that we provide on request (for an HP26?? terminal), and there is at least one commercial Tek emulator (from Grafpoint, it does a 4105) which is known to work with our stuff. NANSI works, too, and I would expect anything else that loads as a device driver for CON to work (subject to the lamentable fact that very few Telnets are able to pass 8-bit data). James B.
