- We have tried accessing DOCLINE through INTERNET and were able to connect and
- log on with no problem, but are unable to retreive references. There were nine
- requests for us. When we gave the command to print the requests the first
- reference displayed till the cursor hit the last line of the screen, then
- it stopped. We could not get past the middle of the first request
- but were prompted by DOCLINE to indicate whether we accepted the requests,
- would like to redisplay, or end session. We had KERMIT disconnect and
- tried the same thing over several times with no better results. Alan Simon at
- HSLC suggested hitting ^Q (screen lock), which did not work.
- MEDLARS management suggested changing our terminal emulation from
- VT320 to TTY, but VT emulation (_any_ VT emulation) worked much better
- than TTY.
-
- Has anyone been able to use INTERNET to access DOCLINE? If so, what terminal
- emulation and telecommunications setup are you using?
-
- I would appreciate your help.
