It is sold by Ericson, that took over the Facit Corp. a few yers ago, and Ericson is a multinational thing. But I still haven't seen the Twist terminal in any other country than my own (== Sweden). We have a few here, and they have a `Mime' label on them. They're kind of neat, but at the small character resolution the comma and period are hard to distinguish. I suppose colon and semicolon share this problem as well. I am also interested in any terminal besides Ann Arbor which has significantly more than 24 lines. Please don't mention blit class terminals which require special hardware of software. (Root Boy) Jim "Just Say Yes" Cottrell
