Communications Week 11/27/89 p.24 reports that Interlink Computer Sciences has a product, SNS/VT Release 2, which enables IBM terminals to emulate DEC's VT52, VT100 and VT220 terminals, and includes 132-column support, and multi-national character support for nine languages. The article also reports that they have an SNS/NETconnect product that lets IBM's mainframe-based Netview manage DECnet networks.

In addition to Interlink, Intel and Mitek have products that allow a 3270 type terminal to emulate a ascii full screen terminal(eg. vt100). The Intel and Mitek products use TCP/IP and telnet to communicate with the non-IBM systems. The Intel and Mitek solutions use a hardware box that contains the TCP/IP interface. There are other products that provide similar functionality using X.25. Regards, Mike Brown Southwestern Bell Telephone Co. Information Systems/Business Computing Group
