Somewhere around 2004, I was setting up klh10. I found that xterm did not allow me to run emacs successfully. I had dumb terminals on hand, so I plugged a vt420 into my serial port, ran a getty, logged in, ran klh10 from there and emacs loved it. I'm following this thread because I too want a decent terminal emulator that works with a variety of vintage text editors (that seems to be the torture test) but for Linux or OS X. Putty seems to be a repeat suggestion but it's not for my platforms. -ethan
