To following up my own note:
: :
: : It looks like everything works as advertised but I am disappointed
: : with the speed.  I'm using an Intel 400 internal 14.4k modem in the PC
: : with Telebit 14.4k on the Unix end, which are currently limited to
: : 19.2Kbits by the Unix com link. To get a quantitative comparison, I
: : did 'cat file' where "file" is 20 kbyte uncompressed ascii text, and
: : it took 75 seconds to scroll through an X window over the modem link,
: : 270 chars/sec.  Using the identical hardware and Procomm+FW the same
: : "cat file' takes 11 seconds, 1820 chars/sec.  BTW, I use NCD PC XView
: : on my PC at work (HP) every day for the same Unix access from a PC over
: : a LAN and like that just fine.  The same 'cat file' scrolls by in
: : ~2 seconds on the LAN connection.

I just tried a few experiments. I cat'd a 20261-byte file (471 lines)
under various scenarios:

PC-Xview for DOS in a full-screen OS/2 window (1024x768x16):    18 sec
Telix (DOS) in an OS/2 window (1024xs768x256):                  107 sec!
Telix (DOS) is a full-screen OS/2 window (standard VGA):        11 sec
Telix (DOS) in a Windows 3.1 window (1024x768x256):             30 sec
UW/WIN in a seamless OS/2 window (1024x768x256):        gave up after 4 min!
UW/WIN in Windows 3.1 (1024x768x256):           faster, but gave up after 2 min
UW/WIN in a seamless OS/2 window using pg       30 sec, could have been a
                                                little faster (I had to keep
                                                hitting the space bar)

I was using an ATI Wonder XL video card, by the way.

So PC-Xview for DOS looks pretty good (and the line-by-line scrolling
in OS/2 desktop looks pathetic, although full-page redraws are pretty
good).

I tried it under PC-Xview using my normal (9x15bold or 10x20) font,
and with a very small font, and there was no difference in the times.
The modem receive light was on pretty solidly, so it looks like the
bottleneck was the 9600-baud modem, not the screen drawing.
