I have been using the vt100 program for some time and have just recently
needed to do tek graphics, and , therefore, have downloaded the new version
of vlt.

I downloaded the manual last evening from xanth, scanned it, and was not
able to resolve my questions.

I've got vlt running, but not fully.

1. I get numerous rexx messages on the screen and wish to eliminate them since
   I don't have rexx (and probably don't need it, or do I?). I saw somewhere
   a posting of where I can get arexx (How much is it?).

2. Also, it is suggested that I get WBench in the vlt docs, what is it?

3. When trying to open a tek window, I get an error.  Maybe I don't have
   enough memory...

4. So, I tried to change my default screen to the workbench screen (less
   colors --> less memory?).  Then, I got a font error.  I may be able to
   resolve this one with the help of the documentation I got last night.
   I also just installed version 1.3 of the op. system, and remember reading
   something about fast-fonts.  Is my font problem related to FF, or to not
   having the fonts supplied with the ftp version copied in the right
   location???

I think that is it....Sorry for all the questions, but vlt looks like a good
program, and I would like to get the most out of it.

Thanks for the help......Robert Estes
