Hi Together,
on my 6.5.22 boxes I compiled the following software:
(1) pForth2.1 - a (for non-commercial use) free Forth,
see http://www.softsynth.com/pforth/
(2) rat-3 - The "robust audio tool" from Networked Multimedia
Research Group at University College London which is an
online telephone program (compatible to vat) and works
quite well for handling one or more calls between more
different boxes. Sup****ts crypto as well and needs two
open ****ts between the machines.
The program is available for lots of other platforms
as well (WinDowze, Solaris, Linux,...) and communication
has been tested to a linux rat-4 client. I like rat-3 more
than the current 4.xx since it is very stable.
See http://www-mice.cs.ucl.ac.uk/multimedia/software/
(3) vic-2.8 - Which is from UCL like rat and is a video
conferencing tool and is used together with rat to have
chats with video. Video-Inpúts or parts of the x11 screen
can be sent to other machines with different codecs. Works
very nice, even with more simultaneous sessions. Tested
successfully on the following boxes, all running 6.5.22:
Indigo2/cosmo, Octane/Galileo,evo and O2/mvp
If someone is interested in giving them a try I'd generate
tardists of the software and put them somewhere for test...
Still highly appreciating the IRIX/MIPS/SGI platform,
Erik.
