[Simh] VT220 emulation

[Rick Campbell]

There's TeraTerm Pro.  It's free, open source and supports VT100/200/300
emulation as well as TEK4010.  Also supports SSH.

For whatever it's worth, I have tried:

 

Putty - doesn't seem to emulate a VT220 very well. VMS does not seem to
recognize it as

           a VT200 nor does edt seem to work.

 

Kermit - not free and also seemed to have the same problem(s) (or
configuration 

            opportunites)  as Putty. It's demo license expired before I
could get the thing to 

            work.

 

IVT - this one was FREE and worked as a VT220 out of the box. VMS (7.3)
correctly 

        identified it as a VT220 terminal and edt worked. Now that being
said, I have some 

        keyboard mappings to work out and some relearning of keyboard keys,
but it did work.

 

So I would recommend IVT, telnet'ing to localhost on a port that the vax
simulator is running on.

 

73, Rod
