Re: V6 manuals and VT100 look-alikes.

YTo the Arpa person who was interested in dumping V6 manuals:
We would be interested in them.  My address is:
Le Nguyen,
411 Weil Hall
University of Florida
Gainesville, Fl  32611


Now...about VT100 compatible terminals:  We have used CIT-101
terminals for a while and are fairly satisfied with them.
The setup mode prints the option out, which means you do not
have to have a manual around everytime you change something.
The only minor problem is that there is a SCROLL/NOSCROLL
switch right under the left hand SHIFT key.  Sometimes the
scroll key gets hit instead, and you know the rest of the story.
At least the online light blinks on and off whenever SCROLL
is in effect, so if you are observant, you can detect the fact
that you pushed the wrong key...  I am happy with the C-Itohs
but my office mate would rather have the real McCoy...
Le.
