AT&T 630 terminal - software ??

[Richard Stevens]

All this discussion about the AT&T 630 terminal (the derivative
of the Blit) got me wondering exactly what it was (I know what
the Blit is/was).  I called AT&T and they claim the list price
is $1,225 - I was expecting something in the $2k ballpark (or more).

What software is available for it ?  The AT&T literature says
it "all" comes with System V, Release 3.  My SVR3.2 manuals
(for the 386) have man pages for layers(1), xt(7) and the like,
but what sort of other tools are available ??  I recall Rob
Pike's posting a few months back saying that the sam editor was
now available from the Toolchest.  I've heard of a program called
proof that is a ditroff-previewer, which, if available, would convince
me to order the terminal immediately.

What I'd really like is the controlling software that can run with
4.3 BSD on a VAX.  Does this exist ?  If so, are there any tools
to go with it on a VAX?
