We have a dozen or more FastPaths, and use both NCSA Telnet and Brown's TN3270. We now have pressure to offer graphics support! We have been trying to use 4014 mode (connecting to our VM system via an IBM 7171 which knows how to go into transparent mode). Output is generally OK, though sometimes the picture drawing stops in the middle, restarting if we hit the return key), and the problems of being in the right mode on the right screen are something we can probably work out. However, we are unable to get graphic input (what I believe is called Gin or Locator mode). We expect to see the tektronix crosshair cursor on the screen, move it with the cursor keys (mouse?) and hit return (click the mouse?) to indicate positions. Nogo. Anyone got it working? BTW, what would be really nice would be 4107 emulation! Mike Gerard -- _ _ o | __ | jmg@cernvax.uucp | | | | _ / \ _ __ _ __ _| jmg@cernvax.bitnet | | | | |_) /_) | __/_) | (___\ | (_/ | J. M.
