[Simh] Semi-OT: Terminal Recommendations for use with SIMH

[Johnny Billquist]

Thanks.

Pretty interesting. So far I've not spotted any problems with the actual 
functions, but it totally lies about what kind of capabilities it has 
when queried with DECID.

It claims it have soft fonts, but it does not. It claims it does not 
have color, but it does.

Oh well, as far as terminal emulators goes, it's definitely not bad. But 
I did have to search around some before I found out how to get the 
rubout key to send DEL instead of BS, and for it to use Latin-1 instead 
of some silly UTF-8. But it works.
