    This is to announce the final beta test cycle for pcvt 3.20, beta 22

Pcvt is a video/keyboard driver for i386-based NetBSD (0.9, 1.0 and -current)
           and for FreeBSD (1.0, 1.1R, 1.1.5.1R, 2.0 and -current)

Pcvt has almost full VT220 compatibility, supports national keyboard remapping,
24/25/28/40/50 lines and 80/132 columns and a configurable number of virtual
screens for character terminal and X11 sessions. It comes with a complete set
of fonts, utilities and documentation for easy integration into the above
mentioned systems.

Beta 22 is the release candiate and i will only accept bugfix patches for it.

Things done since beta 21:

	bugfixes for
		- running pcvt under NetBSD-current
		- xset bell bugfix for NetBSD
		- a _real_ FASTSCROLL bugfix
		- bugfix for multiple X servers

FreeBSD pre-2.1 should run ok, Joerg reports that the crash was due to a
bug/misconfiguration in conf.c.

Please have a look at Doc/ChangeLog for details. The bugfix for multiple
X servers made it necessary to run another beta cycle.
