Wondering if anyone has thought about implementing some support for
LAT and failing that, DECNET support. I realise that LAT is apparently
a DEC secret at the moment, but given DECs support for Linux might
some software support be feasible? I was wondering about using Linux
as a LAT terminal server.
You can buy PC LAT terminal programs, such as KEAterm/LAT. So its obviously
not impossible. Linux supports an awful lot of networking protocols at the
moment so it would certainly be nice to add a few more!
