A Sunview tool emulator whould be even better. > Joel Shapiro shapiro@ruhets.rutgers.edu The vt100tool for Sun OS 4.0 is ftp'able from titan.rice.edu. Look for vt100tool.tar.Z (either in sources or incoming) and then decompress and untar it into a directory. Then do a make and you should be OK. Let me know if you have troubles. This is the same emulator that I posted several years ago for version 2 and 3. I tries for full fidelity to a vt100 including double width and height chars, graphics, bold, etc. Regards, Ed ----------------------------------->> External: Internal Mail addresses at MITRE: ell@linus.mitre.org ell@mbunix ell@linus
