DA26 : never
seen it used
Used on an NCD 88k color x-windows terminal for video. Probably also
used on other things.

shell as AUI uses)
That's not correct. The size of the shell is between a DA and DB, and it
has 19 pins. I have no idea what it would be, but since there's no letter
between A and B (at least the last time I checked my ABCs), and since DC,
DD and DE are taken, I would imagine it's maybe DF or something else
illogically unsequential.

I have seen the 19 pin connector (Mac external disk drive port, ST DMA
port) called a DF19. I have no idea if this is official, though.
Similarly, I've seen the 23 pin version (Amiga video) called a DG23.

Depends on the alphabet in use; in Cyrillic, at least as I learnt it
back in the late '70s, A is the first letter of the alphabet and B
(pronounced like English V) is the third; the second looks to a Western
eye a bit like a capital Greek gamma overstruck with a Latin lowercase
b, and corresponds to English B. If your mail client does proper
multipart/mixed rendering and you have KOI-8 available (and I didn't
botch constructing the multipart message :), the Cyrillic alphabet as I
learnt it begins

Is that the connector NeXTen used for video/keyboard? Same pin spacing
and narrow dimension as the DE/DA/DB connectors but 19 pins wide?
