[net.info-terms] vt220 help

adm@cbneb.UUCP (04/08/85)

	I have a vt220 which I run in VT100 mode most of the time.
I do however have a couple of programs that will only run on a VT52.
At the present time a run a short program to software switch from
vt100 mode to vt52 mode, This works fine, but when I want to switch
back to vt100 mode I can't. Has anyone found an escape sequence that
will permit you to switch from vt52 mode to vt100 mode or even to vt220
mode without reseting the terminal??? I have check the vt220 programmers
guide but have not found a solution.


					tnx

Doesn't "escape <" do that ?
(escape, less-than)
