Were the VT's compatible with keyboards for the

I've not looked at the schematics, but I'd be amazed if
they were
compatible in any way. There was/is very little inter-vendor
terminal keyboard compatibility.
The memory is very hazy, but didn't the VT-100 use a quarter-inch phone
plug for its mechanical interface? I think it was just like a 1/4"
stereo audio plug except that it had two ring contacts (tip, ring,
ring, sleeve rather than the usual audio tip, ring, sleeve)....
No, just a standard 1/4" stereo (tip, ring, sleeve) connector.
