I need to be able to load an APL character set and translate
keyboard and screen into this set while in a communications
program running under Windows 3.0; is this possible?

I can do it outside by loading an APL font into EGA/VGA and
using MS-Kermit 3.0 which has complete keyboard and screen
mapping capabilities. When in Windows 3.0, however, the 
font is not available.

Can I make a Windows font for APL characters and still use 
MS-Kermit 3.0? The Terminal accessory is nice about fonts,
but I can't find a way to remap the keyboard and display.

Also: I would like to display tektronix graphics (a la Kermit
emulation) in a Window. 

Finally: Is there a Windows application for displaying PostScript?

Thanks in Advance,
Andrew Mullhaupt

Version 1.0 of the FMSOUND stuff is coming out in a week or so.  It will have
MUCH nicer methods of doing all these things.  It will have a configurable
beep that will stay the same regardless of the song you are playing, and
will even use the PC speaker for the beep, if you, as I do, often use your
stereo for other things while you use your computer :->.

Greetings!
	I have a question that I figure one of ya'll would have seen.
	At work, we have a at&t 6383E/33 wgs with an att 320 mouse (logitech)
and their vga600 (i think, its really a paradise 512).  Our problem is that
this beast barfs under enhanced mode.  Unless I force it to standard mode with
the /s option it only fires up title screen and then comes back to dos with the
video mode all screwed up (read I can't see anything but the cursor, this is 
cured by typing cls).
	Any clue, would the paradise drivers perhaps solve this?

	This may not really be a question for this group, but I have another
question about this machine/sw combination...  Under vp/ix 3.0 windows
barfs with an error "can't emmulate instruction."  If you don't know what vp/ix
is then you probably can't help me with this one.

Dave,

You might try the latest Logitech driver, 5.01.  It's available on their BBS
at 1-415-705-0408 (1200-N-8-1).

Bill...
