Could someone point me to a Mac Tektronix 4014 emulator that would let me:

1.  carry on as I do now: Courier HST to Courier HST on a remote 8800/Ultrix
	via regular phoneline and ZTerm/RasterOps 264/6.0.4 IIcx.

2.  receive and display 128x128 color pixel dumps as quickly and often as it
	can stand it from a remote (ping: 128/500/1200 ms) Connection Machine.
	
The CM's unix front end writes down some sparse sample of the computed
output (the information is computed 100 times a second) as ppm files
or Xwindow commands.  However, we think that the 4014 protocol might
be the most portable, lean and convenient way to do it, allowing the
code to run without modification on so diverse controlling platforms as
Amiga, Mac, actual 4014 terminals, other 4014-capable terminals...
What do you think?

Thank you.

P.s.  I'll summarize and post any individual pointers not made in confidence.
