Can anybody help me with the DA called VT100? It sounds like what I want,
but I can't get it to work! I discovered it on usenet comp.binaries.mac,
downloaded it, unbinhexed it (trying both v 4.0 and 5.0, in case that
matters?), and then un-PackIt-ed it. Result: a da vt100 and a font vt100.
I installed both with font/da mover (I tried both orders of doing that).
I restarted the mac (to be sure). Invoking vt100 da then displays
alert box: you must install vt100 font, then refuses to run.
Did I do something wrong? Is there some trick with redit to match
resource and/or font numbers? Was there a bad version of vt100 posted
on usenet? Help!
I mailed the poster: rmonsen@bbn.com, but the mail gets bounced: unkwon
unknown user.
VT100 sounds like the best contender for what I want because it
has what I need (9600
baud, vt100 emulation) and is very small (11K) and is a da (which is nice).
Of course, I've never seen it run...
