       devices, including text-only  terminals	or  PCs	 (character-cell)  and
       imaging and WYSIWYG terminals (windows workstations and PCs).

       DECwindows Motif mail, DECnet(TM),  the	File  Transfer	Protocol,  DEC
       MAILworks(TM),  PATHWORKS(TM),  and  ACA	 LiveLinks support transfer of
       DDIF compound  documents	 among	key  NAS(TM)  platforms:  VMS(TM)  and
