You'll have to forgive my ignorance - I'm not a 'PC person' really. (As a consequence, I don't normally read this group, so please email any responses.) In any case, a PC clone is what I find sitting on my desk right now, and I am generally using it as a terminal to log into a Sun. It would appear to be OLD, like an 8086 machine, with a 20 MB hard disk, and 640k ram. The brand name is INVES. The problem : I'm using Telix right now. The screen updating is REALLY slow. This is at 9600 baud. I also have ethernet on the machine, but PCNFS Telnet crashes constantly (this may be a problem with our network for all I know). The question : Is there a terminal program, (or even something equivalent to telnet to run over ethernet) which is optimized for screen update speed ? I don't care a bit about autodialing, capture, scrollback, scripts, etc (though I'll admit key definitions would be nice...). I would just like anything which will scroll the screen fast. Any ideas ?
