In the release notes for ISC 2.2, it is implied that SCO Professional
works, because they provide a bug workaround when using SCO Pro on
an xt-layers type of terminal (AT&T 630, 5620).

As for whether it really works, I can't say.

Although ISC probably doesn't want to be in the software warrantee
business, it would be nice if in addition to the 62 pages of HW
compat and config information, there was a section for SW compat.
Even though systems are 'sposed to be binary compatible, people
sometimes need reassurance (me included!).  For the popular apps,
they could make four lists: don't know, doesn't work, seems to
work, and it works (but don't blame us if it doesn't).
