Are there any comm packages (idunno the names but like Kermit,RedRider,etc.) that emulate Tektronix terminals (like the old 4014) and run on a IIcx over a phone line? Email me if you can. Ken Warner warner@scubed.scubed.com

Yes there are, matter of fact. Versaterm-PRO (who it's by, I don't know) emulates two varieties of Tektronix terminals (which ones, I don't know either) as well as several other types. >Email me if you can. >Ken Warner >warner@scubed.scubed.com ______________________________________________________________________________ Donald Burr, c60a-cz@danube.Berkeley.edu | "I have a seperate mail-address University of California, Berkeley | for flames and other such nega- Majoring in Computer Science | tive msgs; it's called /dev/null."

VersaTerm-PRO emulates the following terminals: Tek 4105, Tek 4014, VT100, and DG200. IMHO it is the best Tek emulator. Once in graphic mode, one can: Clear page, zoom in, zoom out, scale polygons, text, set line styles, print the graphics to printer, save the graphics to disk, and load graphics from disk. Moreover it has a special printer driver, so vectors look like vectors, not jagged lines. If you are developing a graphics program, it is very nice to be able to switch between the graphics window and terminal window, or to look back at previous graphics pages. The numeric keypad can be mapped for gold keys. The VI mouse is supported. The program offers comprehensive online help. In short, it isn't called VERSAterm for nothing. In fact it would take quite some thought to come up with a feature this program doesn't have. Oh, yeah, the new version will be the first to support the new communications toolbox. L. Abelback sure knows what he's doing.
