1575.0. "Any DECsystem 10 windows??" by CANYON::OSHAUGHNESSY () Sat Oct 14 1989 00:52

    This may seem like a strange question but...
    
    Has anyone ever tried to set host to a DECsystem 10 from a DECterm
    window on a workstation??
    
    My customer did, the results were rather interesting.  The logon
    message from the 10 was display waiting for input.. then the DECterm
    window was reduced to the title bar, and menu bar.  An attempt to 
    resize the window produced a transparent window and we could not get
    control back to that window. We finally had to use the Quit option from
    the menu bar.  This is quite repeatable.
    
    Any one have any similar experiences (or any at all) using a
    workstation to talk to a DECsystem 10?
    
    Any comments/help are welcome.

    What version of DECwindows - was it VMS or ULTRIX?
    
    Anyhow, the DECTERM conference would be a good place to discuss this,
    see note 2 in this conference for the location.
