Do you have a dialin SLIP line? If so, I suspect you should be able to
use XGator on your Mac which I believe will provide an X client interface
for the Mac. This brings up an interesting question. Does an application
exists for SLIP dialin directly into a Mac exist? MacSLIP and VersaSLIP
will dial out, but how about the Mac becoming a SLIP server?
