A quick search of "wyse-60 java" brought up a whole mess of Windows wyse-60 emulators, and very vew Unix ones. http://www.acordex.com/vtj/JTerm.html is a link to a Java terminal emulator that claims to do wyse-60 emulation. http://www.cs.utk.edu/~shuford/terminal/pc_emulation.html has a link to a couple hundred Windows apps, some of which do wyse-60 emulation. If you're a coder, I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to hack xterm or screen to parse wyse-60 codes instead of ANSI. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
