Hi Guys,
I've just posted an updated PC100 to my site - excepting for bug fixes
(please send reports), this should be the last version for a while, as
it has reached the point where it does everything I need (and more).
Updates in this version:
- Implemented slow-scroll as a substitute for smooth-scroll
- Improved key mapping function so you can more easily see the
existing mappings.
- Added a BREAK key (finally) - and programmable break timing.
(Removed the BREAK function from the menu)
- Programmable ^G and Margin BELL fequency and bell length.
- Programmable VT-100 DA response value (mainly so that you.
can decide if the terminal indicates AVO present or not).
PC100 is a PC based VT-100 emulator which:
Runs under DOS, so you can use any old PC as a VT-100
Is more complete than any other DOS VT-100 emulator I've seen,
supports everything from the DEC VT-100 documentation (including
VT-52 functions) except for:
- Double Wide/High characters.
- Smooth scroll is implemented as "slow scroll".
Supports all VT-100 attributes correctly (VGA).
Supports full VT-100 graphics character set (VGA).
Keyboard is fully mappable, including Shift, Control, NoScroll,
Break, and all other VT-100 key functions. You can use ANY key
on the PC keyboard for any VT-100 key. Default layout replicates
the DEC keypad to the extent allowed by the physical differences.
Additional (non-VT-100 features):
Powerful script language lets you automate sessions.
File transfers - ASCII is built in, and can link to external
programs for other protocols. I include a XMODEM/YMODEM module.
30 programmable function keys with status line labels and up to 64
character transmit strings (I use them for commonly issued commands
during debug sessions).
Enjoy,
Dave
