675.0. "Where is DECterm Graphics Programming Manual?" by NEXUS::B_BRADACH () Tue Apr 25 1989 18:15

    I have a customer who would like to know where the DECterm Graphics
    Programming Manual is.  This manual is referenced in VMS DECwindows
    Desktop Applications Guide on page 7-1, Using DECTERM.  I have checked
    with various people and noone has heard of it.  Is this a valid
    manual or just a mistake in the current documentation?
    
    Thanks in advance for information.

Re: .0

It should be available from the SDC.  It's not part of the standard DECwindows
doc set.

675.2thanks, and is it on-line for internal use?NEXUS::B_BRADACHWed Apr 26 1989 13:399
    Thanks for the response, I forgot to say that I also posted this
    in DECTERM notes file (357). Also, would anyone know if this is
    available internally, on-line??
    
    thanks for the quick response.

    Re:  .1
    
    Bob:  I just checked with SDC and they were unable to find a reference
    to this manual.  If anyone out there has a copy with a part number,
    I would appreciate it.
    
    thanks

Re: .3

I've forwarded your note to our technical writer, and she'll track down the
order number.

The SDC had *better* be carrying this manual...

675.91-800-DIGITAL (not available from SDC)56733::MESSENGERBob MessengerThu May 11 1989 18:3813
Re: .8

There is no on-line version of the DECterm programming manuals.  You can
order them by calling DECDIRECT at 1-800-DIGITAL.

Most DECterm features are also described in the VT320 and VT330/VT340
programmer reference manuals.  Of the new features, ANSI locator support
isn't in the published manuals; it's described in the VMS V5.1-1 release
notes, which I've posted in the DECterm notes conference,
HANNAH::DECW$DISK:[PUBLIC]DECTERM.NOTE (press KP7 to select).

    DECDIRECT a minute ago said they were not valid part numbers.

675.11As of 9:30 this morning...43248::LESLIEAndy ��� Leslie, CSSE/VMS EuropeFri May 12 1989 06:057
I can confirm that these manuals are NOT available and are in fact unknown in 
Europe.

This must be rectified, of course.

675.12We'll get to the bottom of this asap56733::MESSENGERBob MessengerFri May 12 1989 11:215
I forwarded .10 to the DECterm product manager, and she says the issue is
being worked.

    RE: .10 & .12

    P&CS says that the order numbers are bad too.  They tried searching for
    similiar numbers for me and came up with nothing.
