TSSnet Programming
Yes, the new company is small shop but has several VAXen, three here in
NYC, plus several MVAX workstations, all on DECnet and Ethernet. We also
have direct dialups into a couple systems, and both end nodes and routing
nodes. At any rate, I've now been there three months and like it, much
saner then my previous place.
The workstations are used as traders workstations, with the traders having
things like Reuters or DJ screens (where they used to have multiple
terminals at each desk) and they can do data entry for trades using the
VT220 emulation in x/decwindows. They are all connected via ethernet, of
course. In fact, nearly every person in the place has a terminal, though
most are connected to terminal servers.
