As I recall, the people who got them on their desks thought they were great (once they figured out how to use them). You can (as I recall) have multiple sessions going to multiple hosts simultaneously (in different windows whose size you can define). They also had different font size so that you could have a window that took up 1/4 of the screen and still get 80 characters in it (I think). I only used one once, but its VT-220 emulation seemed pretty good to me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Steve DeJarnett | ...!ihnp4!csun!polyslo!sdejarne | | Computer Systems Lab | ...!{csustan,csun,sdsu}!polyslo!sdejarne | | Cal Poly State Univ | ...!ucbvax!voder!polyslo!sdejarne | | San Luis Obispo, CA 93407 | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #include
