There are many hundreds of VAR applications that assume the use of 4GL on a character terminal. Many of them use specialised terminals for particular applications. Add to this the large number of corporate customers who have invested heavily in development for the UNIX character market and there is a very strong case for continuing support for 4GL for at least the next 5 or 10 years. I think that a large number of customers who are currently looking away from INFORMIX due to the uncertainty of the future of charcatre based 4GL would welcome a positive statement on the future of 4GL.
