If you know of a terminal emulation program for a hp86 I would appreciate
any information you can provide.

/* ---------- */

The hp86 and 87 have a terminal enulator package which emulates a hp 2622
terminal. According to the 1985 hp product catalogue, what you would need
is a:

    HP 82900A Opt. 001 (HP-86B Term/80) 		$495.

	This is an auxiliary processor modual and software.  If
	you already have a cp/m system, order the HP 82849A software
	only ($200).

    HP 82939A Opt. 001 (RS232 Serial Interface)		$395.

	Option 001 is with a male connector and the standard 82939A
	has a female connector.

I'd double check those order numbers and prices with whoever you place 
your order with in case they have changed.

Hope this helps,

HP DMK (formerly CSO) maybe DMSO from what I've heard, lists TERM80,
Data Communications and Professional Communications as datacomm software.
All list for $200.00.

When we first installed our system we had quite a few 86's & 87's around
and used TERM80. It does require a CP/M card and is marginally acceptable if
you can live with pressing [shit] [ctrl] [leftbracket] (3 keys) for escape.
