	The above is wrong for the Alisa package. It supports Alisaterminal
which is a resource which gives Versaterm, Versterm-pro, or MAC-240 the
capability to remote login from the mac to the VMS host.  It uses CTERM
protocols (VMS SET HOST XXX) and is MUCH more efficient then the NCSA telnet
program TO A VMS MACHINE.  It is also completely compatible with NCSA telnet
to TCP/IP machines.  We run Alisa for our VMS machines, and use NCSA telnet to
the unix boxes and for arpanet access.  I recommend BOTH NCSA telnet and Alisa.
