The purpose of this book is to help the novice become comfortable using any of the Digital Equipment Corporation's VAX computers, from the MicroVAX to the powerful VAX 8000 system. The first nine chapters cover systems which run on Version 4 of DEC's VAX/VMS operating system, while the last two introduce the user to the UNIX operating system. The book is meant to be used as a tutorial. A reader, even one with no experience, should be able to sit down at a VAX terminal and carry out the exercises in each chapter. Self-test exercises at the end of each chapter provide reinforcement, and readers are encouraged to experiment with each system, and the utilize the relevant HELP files.

We discuss the design of hardware and software for inexpensive microprocessor-based terminal/microcomputers. Such devices are fundamentally microcomputers that have been adapted, with specialized software, to operate as remote terminals for a host computer. The discussion centers on a specific video terminal designed and constructed by the authors. This terminal is based on the INTEL 8080 microprocessor and is equipped with software sufficient to emulate the characteristics of standard video terminals required by several available screen-oriented text editors in common use at sites through the ARPAnet. We have found that the microprocessor adequately serves as the controller for such terminals, and that a software-based approach to the design of such terminals offers substantial advantages in capabilities, flexibility, and cost over the hardware-based approach. We suggest guidelines for future designs of microprocessor-based terminals on the basis of our experience designing and using the terminal described here. (Author).
