Hi, experts I need your help badly! VXT2000 and Multia are all retired, but customers still need the function of displying UNIX and VMS Alpha's DECWindow/Motif over networt. (1) WHAT'S TEH ALTERNATIVE Digital can provide today? Your advisory is looking forward to. (2) I know "eXcursion" can simulate DECWindow/Motif on PC. But the customers request LOCAL LANGUAGE support for DECwindow/Motif displying by eXcursion on PC. Could you tell me, If DECWindow/Motif on Digital-UNIX and VMS are all support Chinese Character, can the "eXcursion" display Chinese Character in DECWindow/ Motif simulation on PC also? or need other add on software? from which vendor? ... Thanks ahead for your help! Helen

Hi, Helen, A couple other notes conferences might be able to help: NOTED::EXCURSION HANZI::ASIAN_PRODUCTS If not, here are some ideas: 1. Run eXcursion on the PC and feed it the Chinese fonts from a font server on a Digital UNIX system. The font server is needed because I can't find any eXcursion kits that contain Chinese fonts. 2. Use Reflection X, a PC X server from a company named WRQ. It includes a few Chinese fonts. I'm going to test both approaches tomorrow, just to be safe. I know that the second idea will need some tweaking. I'll let you know how it goes. A couple questions for you: 1. What version of Digital UNIX is the customer using? 2. Are they using CDE? 3. Are they using Simplified or Traditional Chinese? Thanks and regards, Tom |
