Anybody know
where I can get some newer (vt220 or better) DEC serial
terminals that have a PC-style keyboard (or at least better than an LK201;
I need something with a real ESC key...).
The VT220 has an ESC key! try either
f10 or f12. All the other VTxxxs
use the same keyboard or the later version (same key layout and codes).
Yeah I know I can do ctrl-3 or F11 for esc, but when you're a VI user
used to having escape somewhere on the "top left", having to take your
hands off the keyboard to hit f11 is a pain.
If you really want an ESC key, find a VT100!
Got a vt102 in my garage, complete with tilt and swivel stand.
