I have a colleague who logs into a Cray, and wants to run a CA-DISSPLA
application on his DN4500. He'll need some form of graphics terminal emulation,
and he's logging in through an Ethernet, so the terminal emulator can't be
directly tied to a serial port.

Can anyone recommend an affordable graphics terminal emulation package
(preferably better than Tektronix-like things) that runs under the DM
and over an Ethernet?

Or would it just be cheaper to put CA-DISSPLA on his machine? Personally,
I think it would be better to create X applications for the Cray, but that's
someone else's job.

Thanks a bunch,
