- I bought the new Procom+. It has support for INT14 which has the
- potential for being a real nice feature. I am also running FTP's
- PC/TCP which has an INT14 "server" called tnglass.
-
- Too bad you have to start tnglass in DOS before you start windows!
- The long and short of this is that you can get one session going
- to one destination. If you want to disconnect and go to somewhere
- else you're hosed! You have to quit windows and go restart tnglass.
- The other gotcha is that what tnglass really does is to start up
- a telnet session and just leave the display stuff hanging for the
- INT14 emulator to attach to. If you don't get windows up and the
- session going before the remote host gives up on the connection
- you're out'a luck again.
-
- If anyone has a MS-Windows INT14 telnet service routine I'm ready to
- hear about it. :)
