For stuff of the era, the VT-52 is a very handy terminal. I don't

able to use the VTEDIT macro under OS/8 with a VT220 in VT52 emulation
mode. The emulation just wasn't good enough. I suppose one could
find an open-source terminal program and ensure the VT-52 emulation
was up to snuff, but for a plug-it-in-and-get-to-work solution, for
pre-VT52 software, I recommend a real VT52.

If you do and don't want the VT52, I'll
buy it :)
You're just a terminal-obsessed freak, and you know it! ;)
