I am trying to get AdvanceLink, version B.02.00, working with the tnglass (or rlogingl) applications included in the PC/TCP distribution from FTP software. I select the Com1/Int14 comms option in the terminal setup, and then run `tnglass myhphost -e advlink', and eventually get a connected session, but with huge delays in response to keyboard input. Has anyone got this combination to work? Do I need a newer version of AdvanceLink? I don't have any trouble running this configuration using HP's Arpa Services application, BTW.

Sounds like the way they decide if characters are available over INT 14 is a little outside the mainstream. Alternatively, they may be doing everything off the timer tick, and re-entering the kernel frequently. If they want to talk to us about the details, we're interested in understanding them - we just can't promise that we'll be able to implement what they want while retaining compatibility with the other emulators we support.
