You will, however, find a few problems. In 40 (ugh) col mode the Apple //e can just about keep up with a scrolling screen. In 80 col mode the Apple is so slow (swaping banks on each character) that the people who did Apple Kermit were looking into special scroll methods like scrolling all the odd columns then all the even columns. Even this was slow so you may have to change the /etc/termcaps entry on the UNIX system to give it the timing info. Nat Polish@cs.columbia.edu
