I noticed your first article. But I hesitated to reply since DVItoVDU
we have seems not the latest version.

I also would like to know the information on the latest version of
DVItoVDU (ver. 3.???) (C-version).

I got DVItoVDU 1.0 (C-version) from person in U.S. several months ago.
I have fixed it to support all characters allowed by TeX. Also I have
improved PK file support (but omitted PXL instead :-). I have
distributed it as DVItoVDU 1.1J in Japan. We have been using it on
SUNs, HPUXs, SONY NEWSs for several months with no problem. It works
fine with Tek4014 emulation of MS-Kermit on IBM-PC in particular. I
even use it via modems from my home :-)

********* The following part is only to Patrik Eschle **********
If you desperately need it, please let me know your postal address. 
Since we have very limited access to Internet, it is difficult to send
the following file by E-mails.

	188737 May 20 21:47 dvi2vdu-1.1J.tar.Z

It's cheaper to put the file in 3.5inch FD for IBM-PC or Mac
(please specify) and send it via airmail.

Hope this helps !
