It is now decades old, but MS-Kermit on DOS had the best VT100/VT220
emulation. In addition to super accurate display support, it also could map
the PC's NumLk key to the PF1/Gold key. This was super important back when
I used VMS EDT all the time.

On the Ethernet side: LAT Support in MS-Kermit is superb, and it also does
Telnet.

Yeah, I know, there have been no new versions of MS-Kermit in 24 years :-)
