I would always try to use vt220 rather than vt100, also xterm works well with things like putty which is an ssh client.
From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Caminiti, Marc Sent: 17 December 2010 18:27 To: U2 Users List Subject: [U2] Viewpoint Emulation We currently run viewpoint emulation, but there have been some requests to be able to connect to our system via an iPad. I see that there is an software package out there called iSSH that will allow the connection to our system, but it does not have the viewpoint emulation. If I connect to our system with a vt100 emulation, and issue a TERM vt100 from TCL, our menu options work fine, but it seems like any programs where we use the @(#,#) to position the cursor a $<5> appears on the screen then the text. This little program CRT @(0,0):@(-1):"HELLO" CRT @(5,5):"GOOD BYE" Clears the screen, puts HELLO at the upper left, but then in position 5,5 it displays $<5>GOOD BYE Is there a termcap definition that I need to change, or a TERM value I need to change? We run RHEL 5.3, UV 10.2.7 Thanks in Advance marc Marc Caminiti IS Manager Nashbar Direct, Inc 6103 State Route 446 Canfield, OH 44406 330.533.1989, ext 336 330.702.9733, fax Law of Logical Argument - Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.
