VLT 3.598
=========
This is an update of VLT, as described below. If this is the first
time you've downloaded it, read the section about the previous version first.
This version has most reported bugs fixed, but not many enhancements, on
the theory that enhancements usually introduce more bugs: the intention was to
get a solid version out there first before adding new stuff.
Among the changes are: ScreenToFront/Back() in rexxarplib were fixed,
rexxarplib now has functions to retrieve the screen size and interlace status;
the Tektronix (tm) emulator supports some more sequences and eats others; it now
looks for TekStore: and will open the temporary graphics file there instead of
in ram: (for those that have little ram: but sufficient disk space); Kermit was
modified to work also on CDC's (thanks, s_walton!) and a host of bugs were
fixed. Also, the script command FLUSH was added. It flushes the capture buffer
out to disk (or wherever it was capturing to). This is useful for capturing to
the new 1.3 SPEAK: device, for example. Not everything was fixed: the command
parser is still the same and therefore Wait and On etc. still don't work.
This version is a zoo archive, because it supports long filenames and
also path specifications. Therefore, there are no more executeme files.

VLT 3.553
=========
You have just downloaded an archive containing the executable files for
the terminal emulator VLT. VLT is both a VT100 emulator and a Tektronix
emulator, currently in use at SLAC (Stanford Linear Accelerator Center).
Although the VT100 part was originally based on Dave Wecker et al.'s VT100, many
enhancements were made. I won't go into any details at this point. The main
documentation file is not yet ready and will be posted later. For now, if you
have questions, you will have to ask them on BIX in amiga.user. I expect the
documentation to be ready by next week, though...
This program uses ARP, so in order to run it you need arp.library in
your libs: directory. You better make sure you have ARP 1.1, or else nasty
things may happen!
This program is NOT in the public domain. However, you may freely use
this program for any purpose, and are encouraged to distribute it wherever you
want. The author (me) does not, however, accept any responsibility for
suitability for any particular purpose, or for any damages that may occur as a
result of the use of this program, etc., you get the picture... 8-) .
Bug reports are welcome, please send them to me BIXmail.
This archive contains several sub-archives, one for each directory where
you should store the files contained in the sub- archive. Besides VLT and
VLT.info, the archive contains the following files (after executing the various
executeme's). Be sure to read all the various readme files, too! Have fun...
