I agree with everything Brian said, and then some. If you've got
VisionFS correctly installed, and if you're an administrator, you can
browse to the Termlite installation share and install on a PC.
Termlite sucks, but you get what you pay for.
Hm. I suspect we don't have it then, as we use FacetWin for SMB. I
suspected as much from Brian's post and from what little I gleaned via
google. It's one reason I posted on here in the first place looking
for where I might download it. :) But if it won't run with VFS
installed, as Brian suggested, than I am SOL anyway. :(
AlphaCom is a great product. For the price it's a phenomenal bargain.
If you've got a lot of seats the price comes down. He probably should
have mentioned if he worked there (how did you deduce that BTW?) but
that doesn't detract from the vastly superior qualities of the program
esp. when compared to a dog like Termlite.
Actually, I don't KNOW that he works there, but in googling newsgroups
I found a slew of posts on the topic of free SCO ANSI emus that had
various people pitching a product instead of addressing the question of
'where can I find a free SCO ANSI emu?' I just assumed it was more or
less the same case here. Even if it wasn't, I have no way to tell
otherwise anyway, so he might as well be working for them. It was
those same posts that led me to make my own post on where to find a
copy of Termlite, actually, as that was what someone suggested to use
for free. SCO's site was certainly unhelpful on that score, tho.
Termlite has no security (no SSH)Local network, so no matter.
won't size the screen properly on an XP system or allow much formatting
control with fonts
Fine so long as it's legible.
won't easily transparent print
Don't need to print locally.
won't dial a modem
Don't need to dial, it's a local network.
won't automatically connect to a host, etc. etc. etc.
We don't do that anyway; it always requries user initiation plus a
un/pw.
All I want is to be able to type characters, use function keys and
display data. Which is why Termlite would probably do just fine,
especially being $25 cheaper than AlphaCom. :)
