I have been told that VIPTERM is a good vt52 emulator. I have used the VIPTERM as a vt52 emulator and have ot found it a very pleasig experice. I was wodering if I had my parameters set wrong. Is there a special way to set up the parameters to gget a better vt52 out of the VIPTERM, and if not can anybody suggest a good terminal program that works well with vax and the unix Operating System. thanks rich

I have had some new problems with software written for the C64 (toy?). Last night when using VIPTERM to log on to the VAX I had some wierd things happen. I mistakingly hit COMMODORE KEY - G and that was it for the night... for that point on all I could read was garbage from the VAX. So I rebooted the program and I decided to switch joysticks to use my new ones........ BUT that was a mistake.... THE result was my screen freaked out and there I was back in basic but with a screwed up keyboard. My question is : Is there a source where I can find out the bugs with this term program? Also, is there a better term program than VIPTERM or is just the C64 that makes for a bad terminal? thanks rich UCSD
