[net.micro.trs-80] Terminal packages for CoCo

psuvm%gms@psuvax1.UUCP (06/10/84)

A whole assortment of terminal emulators for the CoCo can be found
via the ads in any issue of Rainbow magazine.  I have used both Colorterm
and Nelson 3.0 (now called VIP terminal).  I prefer the latter since it
is (1) easy to use and (2) supports uploading and downloading (at least
of ASCII files) to all of the machines I have tried it with (VAX/UNIX,
DEC-10, DEC-20, VAX/VMS, PDP-11's, IBM-4341 (CMS))  Unfortunately it does
not support full-screen so cannot use VI or EMACS.

If anyone comes across a useable full-screen (ie VT100) emulator for
the CoCo, let me know.
