I think you will find that TNglass from FTP software is not their INT
14h redirector. TNglass is actually a version of their telnet client
that simply passes incoming characters through to screen I/O routines
in the BIOS, allowing them to be interpreted by whatever screen driver
you have loaded (usually ANSI.SYS). They probably called it TNglass because,
like glass, it is transparent, at least as far as the incoming data stream
is concerned. The VT-220 emulating telnet client in the LAN-WorkPlace
for DOS can be made to do much the same thing by entering its setup mode
and setting the screen access to "ROM-Bios" and its emulation to
"No-Emulation".

Unfortunately there are more than two! We have an INT 14h redirector in the
LAN WorkPlace for DOS supporting 5 flavours (at last count), these being
BAPI, EtherTerm, Int14, Extended Int14 and the NETCI LAN communication
interfaces.
