I have a VT 102. The only info I can find thru searches
is that it is very
similar to the VT 100 and has some sort of paging capability like a
Tektroniks 4014 terminal.
Not exactly - the VT102 features were usually called "local editing".
The 102 also came, by default, with 132-column capability and a few
other bells and whistles that were options on the VT100.
I'm not sure what you mean by "paging capability"...
The VT132 added block-mode capability, ala IBM mainframe terminals.
Also, there were a lot of pointers to terminal
emulators that have VT 102 compatibility. No help from them either.
You didn't find Rick Shuford's archive of terminal info, then :-).
The DEC-Specific page starts at
http://www.cs.utk.edu/~shuford/terminal/dec.html
and the more generic terminal-cell page starts at
http://www.cs.utk.edu/~shuford/terminal_index.html
Rick's pages are a truly wonderful model of what web pages should be.
Many good indices to useful information, remarkably little self-
congratulatory graphics!
Could anybody point me to info on this terminal or at
least describe what I
have got and if it would be useable with VMS (the paging feature)?
VMS will work quite happily with the VT102. What exactly do you want
to make it do?
