[net.works] Sun blues.

This may have been brought up before, but if it has, PLEEZ refer me to the
article the solution is in.

Hokay.  I have a Sun Version 2.0 workstation and this is what I want a tool to
do:
	1.  Emulate a terminal when open.
	2.  When closed, have an icon that alters. (i.e. blinks)

So far, I can emulate the terminal (basically sun's "Shelltool") *alone*,
and I can make the icon blink *alone*.   I cannot combine the two, and
though we have software support from Sun (EVry body chuckle) theyre NOT
very SUPPORTIVE.  The person there even said they had a program that
did what I wanted to do, but they couldnt send it to me because of legal
bulls**t.

	I understand from talking to people that this is a Version 2.0 problem
and that version 3.0 has no such difficulties.  Apparently, you have to
do lots of fancy foot work to overcome the problem.  If any of you know,

	HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPP!
