connecting to unix through hyper terminal - as a dumb terminal
I just changed from windows NT to XP and I am no longer able
to connect to my unix system. I used to use hyper terminal -- which acts as dumb terminal to my main frame unix system. I think one of the options used to be "direct to comX". This option isn't listed now. I use a serial port and the computer does recognize this as a com port. I use a direct connection. I called microsoft tech support and they didn't understand this concept and tried several things but were unable to help me. Does anyone know if I my com port configured incorrectly or do I need special drivers.
The computer talks to my com port however I don't think it knows I have a direct connection or cable in my serial port.
Thanks for any help anyone may have.

Description
These subroutines generate graphic output in a device-independent manner. See for a description of their effect. The subroutine precedes
the other subroutines as it opens the device for writing. The subroutine flushes the output. The and routines are used by the lvp16 and
hp7475a plotters only.
String arguments to and are null-terminated and do not contain newlines.
Many of these functions have additional options for different output devices. They are accessed by the options as follows:
