     I use a Symbolics 3650 connected with other Computers - SUN 3/50 , VAX 11/
    780
     etc - by ethernet.

     I need some information on Symbolics termcap so that I can login to other 
     hosts on my Symbolics console (using Select t) by ethernet and edit some f
    ile
     with 'vi' editor.
     Presently, as there is no termcap of symbolics in our site  I can only log
    in
     and view the file by 'more' program.

 We are using vt52 emulation to connect to unix hosts including Vaxen, Suns,
 etc.  We had some difficulties with variable-screen-size vt100 emulation 
 so someone (I don't remember who right now) supplied us with a Telnet fix 
 to use variable-screen-size vt52 emulation.

 So on the unix host, you need a termcap entry for vt52 terminals.  You also
 may find useful a shell script (that is executed only when I login into a unix
 host from the lisp machine) to set your stty values.

 Send mail directly to me if you are interested in the Telnet fix and shell
 script.
