It includes a small program, "minitel", which is a minimal single-session telnet. Minitel expects input from the PC keyboard and outputs to the screen, but it would be a fairly easy matter to modify the code to use a serial port instead. NCSA Telnet is available via anonymous ftp from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu. -- Mike Berger Department of Statistics, University of Illinois AT&TNET 217-244-6067 Internet berger@atropa.stat.uiuc.edu
