Yup....  We used Nick's product for a number of years too;  until
HP delivered NM Transact/iX with Trandebug/iX...

Well, if Wirt's proposal for the future of MPE becomes reality (MPE
and Linux running on the same box), you may get most of what you
want....   At least you would have Transact and IMAGE in emulated
mode on IA hardware.....   :-)

Yup again:  QCTerm VanGogh mode in combination with Transact's
very facile DISPLAY and DATA statements and data access verbs,
should make a great combination for accessing and displaying
TurboIMAGE data in a "modern" environment...
