Saw your post on the list and thought I would correct one thing...

Javelin does not use FrontMan at ALL.  Javelin is a direct port of our
Windows terminal emulators...

<PLUG>
...As such Javelin will handle QED or any other HP host application in
the same way as our MiniSoft 92 for Windows does TODAY.  Javelin is a
Java thin client (less than 80K) delivering complete HP terminal
emulation inside of an Internet browser (Netscape or Internet Explorer).
It represents an exciting way for HP3000 users to web enable existing
host applications without ANY development or conversion.  Javelin
delivers 700/92 emulation in just 80,000 bytes including NS/VT and
Telnet networking.  The Javelin applet downloads to the client from
a web server in mere seconds.  HP3000 Users of Javelin include County
Governments, Libraries, Airlines, and Manufacturing companies.  Some
use Javelin on Intranets and others on the Internet.  Javelin may
represent the next generation of terminal emulators delivering legacy
emulation through a downloadable Java applet.
