There is a really good description of the keymapping process for xterm as well as tools to set the things for you. As Johnny says - be careful many, many terminal emulators are close to VT-100 but not the same. More over, VT-100 != ANSI a often miss understood concept. DEC developed the VT-100 during the ANSI terminal sequence project and released it before the spec was made final. There are a number of difference and they will bite you. If you want a VT-100 (which for VMS et al, you do), then you want a true DEC emulation. That said, if you are running UNIX and want a real ANSI implementation, the Wyse-60 was probably the truest implementation of the ANSI spec I ran into back in the day (although it was not full color). I believe MacWise will emulate the Wyse-60. Truth be told I have have one (and miss it's keyboard). The console for my Masscomp MC-500 ;-) Clem On Sat, Dec 19, 2015 at 4:33 PM, Will Senn <[email protected]> wrote: > > > On 12/19/15 2:58 PM, Johnny Billquist wrote: > >> >> As for double width and double height, xterm does it just fine.
