There's a reasonably good port of SPICE on one of the Fish disks, and I've seen a program called SPLOT that, while not a PROBE emulator, does the job well. I'm sorry I can't give you any more details, but I haven't used them since I finished college last year. >Anyway, the Mac had a program (don't know much about them, only the second time >I've ever touched one, but the GUI is similar to the Amiga's so I was able to >run it) that opens a window on the screen (whatever they call their Workbench >screen) for the telecom program. I gather that the standard Mac II graphics The "desktop" screen is the name, and unless the II does it differently, the Mac doesn't even HAVE multiple screens. This probably isn't what you're looking for, but JR-Comm 1.01 has the ability to run in a window on the Workbench screen. It will be a borderless, fixed-size window, though. (Which is why I said it probably isn't what you're looking for.) -- * From the disk of: | jms@vanth.uucp | "Glittering prizes and Jim Shaffer, Jr. | amix.commodore.com!vanth!jms | endless compromises 37 Brook Street | 72750.2335@compuserve.com | shatter the illusion of Montgomery, PA 17752 | (CompuServe as a last resort)| integrity!"
