- Tek (patch 1, 5.14.90)
-
- This patch fixes one bug and adds one feature to tek (yet another
- tektronics 4014 emulator). CGI programs which take their input from
- stdin do not exit properly, and instead leave the console display in
- graphics mode. To make tek and poly usable as a filters, the code now
- restores the previous text mode on exiting if the input is from stdin.
- With this patch, it is now possible to do
-
- tek4014-program | tek [-wpaN]
- <or>
- graphics-in-ascii-points-program | poly [-spa]
-
- and have the SCO multiscreen restored to text mode on the press of any
- key.
-
- The added feature is that the command line options now include -N,
- where N is a single digit from 1-9, used to specify the CGI graphics
- font for tek. With a VGA display, and with VERIFYFONT off, fonts 3 or
- 4 work well for Tektronics emulation.
