The Digital reference book I have does not list VT102 protocol information. Any idea where I might find such a reference? >But I do have to admit that the online help feature is nice (just slow and >tough to figure out where things are sometimes, but quite extensive). Since I have a hard drive, the speed isn't that noticeable to me, which could be a problem. Maybe I should split the stuff into smaller files. But then it's a tradeoff-faster load times, but loads more often. In any case, the organization could almost certainly be improved. I essentially whipped those screens up in two weekends. The only way I can really improve them, though, is with user feedback. Rather than just saying things are tough to find, could you please give me some specific details about what was confusing or awkward? >-- >Larry W.
