Nope, not outside of Ultrix. I wonder if the sources ever escaped DEC. Wait, I have the source code to Ultrix 4.2a. I wonder if it's in there. Hmm, I wonder as well. Also, it's probably better I mention connecting here so all the crazy solutions get mentioned. Dynamic IP, located in Ohio, US. I have several spare UNIX systems to run a bridge on, and I would prefer to get several systems connected (what area should I use? I'll get back with node names once I figure out how to change them in RSTS/E and TOPS-20) I'm not very good with using emacs, maybe I should just stick with a more basic editor. Or find a better terminal emulator I don't have any real DEC terminals or any real DEC hardware yet. Where in Ohio? I'm in western PA, just a hair northeast of Pittsburgh. Near Columbus. I can hook you up with some hardware. I have, erm, a bit of a surplus at the moment. What do you have as surplus? -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
