[comp.windows.ms] two terminal packages, one comm port

ibekhaus@athena.mit.edu (Ira B. Ekhaus) (02/17/91)

hello,
	In my work, I use two different terminal emulation packages;
Winqvt (windows) and ST240 (dos).

In standard memory mode, with winqvt connected to the host, I can
override WIN3's objection to com port complications, and engage the
same session with ST240 (with its regis graphics).

In 386 enhanced mode however, st240 doesn't display characters typed or
from the host. Returning to Winqvt the missing characters are displayed.
I've experimented with the device contention in windows, and the PIF for 
ST240 with no success.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

thanks,
