PC-Connect for VMS
VisionWare a UK based software house which specialises in the Integration
and Connectivity of PCs running Microsoft Windows with UNIX hosts, SQL
Databases (such as Ingres, Informix, Oracle, Sybase & Interbase) and
X Windows, now has a VMS version of its PC to host Integration product
called PC-Connect.
PC-Connect provides 3 basic things :
1. A Windows style desktop, from which an application can be started by double
clicking on an icon (in the conventional Microsoft way). However the application
could be either a PC application based locally, or on a VMS or UNIX host to which
the PC is connected (either via a network - support is included for TCP/IP and
transports such as DEC Pathworks; or via an asynchronous connection such as
a modem link). These MS-Windows applications and UNIX/VMS applications can
then be displayed side by side on your PC, with facilities such as cut-and-paste
and support for DDE transfers between Windows.
2. Terminal emulation.
3. Host applications.
VisionWare has provided several applications which run on the host platform -
VMS or UNIX, such as Windows based file transfer, a Microsoft Windows style
notepad for editing UNIX and VMS files and a Microsoft Windows style Executive
which displays directory and file structures for the UNIX/VMS host (similar to the
Microsoft DOS Executive with MS-Windows).
PC-Connect already supports most major Unix platforms such as IBM, DEC
HP, Sun, SCO. VMS has now been added to this list.
VisionWare also produces the XVision product, which is a market leading X Windows
display server for the PC running Microsoft Windows.
These products are sold through distributors worldwide and through OEM agreements
with companies such as Unisys, NCR, ICL, Wang, Siemens Nixdorf and Data General.
