Hallo,
We want to connect the Amiga as a terminal to a SysV Unix System
(Silicon Graphics IRIS 31xx). Has anybody already written a TERMCAP
entry for the Amiga-Console-Device and is willing to share his experience?

(I have no idea how to mail a message to Martin, since he is on BITNET.)

I would strongly suggest that anyone who wants to use an Amiga as a
terminal should get a copy of Dave Wecker's VT100 emulator. It runs
very fast (no noticeable display lag). Best of all, it can be used with
a generic vt100 termcap.
