DEC VT102

< VT100 users to hit F5 through F10 to access certain abilities < that are rather necessary - such as exiting the editor. Despite < repeated phone calls to the company, I've yet to convince them that < a VT100 does NOT have F5 through F10 function keys. They claim that < because some popular Windows-based emulators implement these function < keys in VT100 mode, a real VT100 must as well. Arrggghhh!!!! I'm My answer to them is, if I jump off a bridge will you too? They may have confused Vt100 with Vt220(and later) as they do have the function keys. What PCs do/did should never count as valid. < tempted to deliver a half-dozen true VT100's to their corporate < offices via catapult. Tim, Big time right on. Being an exDEC terminals and printers widget I have yet to find a terminal emulation on the PC that does a correct VT100(series) or remotely passable Vt2xx/3xx even the the latter have very similar key layouts. They are universally broken. My local solution is the use of RealTerminal (TM) IE: a in the flesh vt100/102, H19, Vt320, VT340 or vt1200. I know they are honest. Allison
