Interestingly, AICS research has abandoned QCTerm.

They have sent me the source code which is Visual Basic, I believe.

They have also sent me an email stating that I can do whatever I want including 
making it open source.

I know nothing about Visual Basic, or even doing GUI programming. Does anyone 
want to take over development, or better yet, port to a cross platform GUI 
framework?

QCTerm really needs to be archived somewhere - the hp1000 simulator is severely 
hamstrung without it.

I've used the following HP terminal emulators over the years:

 - QCTerm (Windows) by AICS
   http://www.hpmuseum.net/display_item.php?sw=585

 - AdvanceLink 2392 (DOS and Windows) by HP
   http://www.hpmuseum.net/display_item.php?sw=50
   http://www.hpmuseum.net/display_item.php?sw=178

 - Reflection (DOS and Windows) by Walker, Richer, and Quinn
   http://www.hpmuseum.net/display_item.php?sw=308

 - Crosstalk (Windows) by Attachmate

 - Session (Windows) by Tymlabs

All of the emulators, except QCTerm, were commercial products.  Reflection is 
probably the one that offered the most faithful emulation.  The others were 
close, but not perfect, reproductions of the hardware behavior.

(I used QCTerm while developing the simulator.)
