You can also use the program "vtem", which is somewhere in a comp.source archive. A newer version, updated by jqj@hogg.cc.uoregon.edu, is included in in my vttool program (available via ftp on titan.rice.edu, ~/sun-sources/vttool.shar.?) This program should run on almost any terminal, and it passed the vttest program. It does use pty's and is written for berkeley unix. If you are running X or SunView - the rest of the vttool package can provide a window-based panel for clicking function keys your terminal might not have. It also does keyboard remapping. It requires SunView or XView libraries. -- Bruce G. Barnett barnett@crd.ge.com uunet!crdgw1!barnett
