How do you use the vkbd?
Does any program actualy use it?

I used to work with some Nokia terminals which had an excellent softkey system:
Function key images were displayed acrross the bottom of the screen.
You could load up to 21 key sets of which only one would be active at a time.
Each key in each set had a set number, a function key number, a legend, a string
to send when the key was pressed and the key set to change to when the key
was pressed. This last feature in particular allowed us to provide a fully 
function key driven interface quickly and easily for any third party application

That was all a bit of an asside from the original questions but it could 
easily be incorporated into xvttool if someone has the time.

	Yes, sorry about the confusion, a bogus realxfishdb executable made it 
into the Openwindows 3.0 release.

	You can get a version that works from the Direct Xlib 1.0 CD.  All you
have to do is call SunExpress and ask for the Direct Xlib 1.0 CD and they will
ship it to you for FREE.  As a bonus, you get Direct Xlib along with the fish
program.  Go ahead, ask for it, it's worth it!

	The version shipped as part of Openwindows 3.0.1 in Solaris 2.0 should
work also, but it is obviously a SunOS 5.0 version.

	The new version should be able to find the fish on it's own but they
are located in $OPENWINHOME/share/images/fish

Followup-To: poster

I spent the last couple hours using Sunvision 1.1's IP program to manipulate 
some "ratserfile format" images. It didn't go very well. I first tried 
loading in some 8 bit images. They were recognizable and the colors mostly 
correct, but many had "holes" or "tears" where it appeared th color-map 
was mis-translated. Some images were more susceptible than others. 

I then tried loading some mono images. That went a liitle better but when 
I went to save them they were saved in .vff format. When I tried to 
convert them to rasterfiles with vff2ras the images came out "negative" 
relative to the originals. And the files were many times larger. 

Any standard solutions or workarounds? Come to think of it I haven't had 
much luck with most of Sun's format conversion utilties.

Any solutions?  Ideas?  Suggestions for other groups to post this to?

You don't want to run a compute-intensive process like SPICE under
a PC emulator.  It is far too slow.

You can get the source code for Berkeley SPICE from :

Cindy Manly-Fields
Software Distribution Office
EECS/ERL Industrial Liaison Program
479 Cory Hall
University of California at Berkeley
Berkeley, CA  94720

(415) 643-6687

There is fee of around $200 or so for the tape.

They also have printed manuals.  (Included with the tape or available
separately.)

This runs under X and produces really pretty results.

Ummm, there are lots of cheap and useful freebies, demos, and utilities on
DOS that just aren't available or cost mucho dinero on a Sparc, such as PADS
utilities, Pspice, Abel.

It can make more sense to buy an emulation program like SoftPC or SunPC
(SunPC is available from Sun Express) and test or occasionally use packages
like these, rather than buy a PC and take up limited desk space or spend the
bucks for a big color PC monitor when you have a 19" color Sony on your
SparcII. Plus you only need one backup system, ethernet connection, printer
connection, etc. And if you have data that you want to massage with both DOS
programs and Sun programs, you can save yourself transfer problems.

The problem is that it will run somewhat slower than a good PC (although a
SparcII can supposedly emulate a 33 MHz '386 reasonably), you don't get card
slots, and new DOS software may just not be compatible with the emulator.
Emulation designers aren't perfect, despite claims to the contrary.

Good points, but the tone of the original post suggested that the poster
wanted to do serious work with a circuit analysis package on the SPARC,
not just try a package or run an occasional small job.  Since SPICE is
available for the SPARC at relatively little cost, I recommended that
alternative.

My experience with PC emulators on the SPARC has been that they are too
slow and unresponsive to use computationally or graphically intensive
software effectively unless hardware acceleration is present.  Using a
80x86 coprocessor board gives acceptable speed, but interoperability is
far from seamless.  Hence I stand by my statement above.
