[comp.sys.next] uw or slip

    Is there currently any way to have multiple terminal emulators on the
NeXT going out over a single serial line?  What I would like to do is have 
up to 8 terminals on a remote machine that will only be accessable via
a modem ie not connected by ethernet.  Although slip would be the best
solution, from what I hear on the net, it is not available yet.  So, is
there a program like uw available?

Mouse question:  I don't have a NeXT yet, but it appeared that the NeXT
has a dynamic mouse.  By dynamic, it seems that the movement of the mouse
is determined by the velocity of the mouse rather then the distance 
traveled by the mouse.  (slow movement of the mouse moves the pointer
a small distance, fast movement moves it a large distance)  Is this 
selectable, or will I have to change my mousing habits?

Thanks for all of the help,
