    This posting is requesting information about terminals that will work 
with the X windowing system over a serial (tty) line. So far I have heard of 
three different terminals from Visual and Graph On that are capable of this.
    Graph On has two terminals, the 235 and the 250 that come with the
software needed to be used with X. We have contacted Graph On about getting 
a demo of the 235 but they are having trouble sending one out. At the latest
Siggraph there was a Visual terminal running X. It was not Visual itself and 
they were not aware of what company it was.
    I would like to know about other terminals that work with X over a serial
line. If anybody knows about the company with X on the Visual terminal at
Siggraph please let me know.
    Please send any responses by email. If you are interested in this 
information send me some mail and I will send you what I have.
