OK, I'm stumped. I'd like to use a real VT100 as a terminal with an
emulated PDP-11 running RT11.
When the VT100 is connected to a real PDP-11, it works fine. When connected
to the emulated PDP-11, garbage characters begin to appear on the screen
when, say, doing a DIR command.
It's possible the VT-100 can't keep up to the emulated PDP-11.
The VT-100 needed a lot of padding characters or working XON/XOFF soft
flow control. It's just a guess.
