How can I get extra screens on my terminals too??? Write a new operating system. :-) There isn't any way to do it with the basic XENIX system. They sell a windowing package that does windows, but it is *not* the same thing. BTW, you get as many multi-screens as you have memory for (according to some magic algorithm). If you don't want 8, you can knock it down to 2 by using the /usr/sys/conf/configure program. The manuals document it. >Also, how can I configure the ports to run at 19.2k baud (can Xenix handle >that)? XENIX will use 'exta' as 19.2 and 'extb' as 38.4 if your serial card will support those speeds. Look in the /etc/gettydefs and /etc/ttys files to see what to do. If you need more assistance, just send email. -- Mark D.
