[net.micro.mac] VersaTerm, Mac VT100/Tek4014 Emulator Posted

lra@aluxe.UUCP (Lonnie R. Abelbeck, AT&T Bell Labs) (11/17/84)

I have submitted to net.sources a DEC VT100/Tektronix 4014 Terminal
Emulator for the Macintosh.  Two *.rsrc files in tohex format, and a
couple of documentation files are supplied.

The program was developed under Manx C68k.  The VT100 emulation is
good, character delete/insert is included vt102 style, but the 
multiple character sizes, line drawing graphics, etc are not implemented.
The 4014 is very complete, 4 character sizes (Fonts included), the
screen is refreshed, full screen cross-hairs, etc. The program runs
at ~2400baud without XON/XOFF handshaking.

I have submitted this program, VersaTerm, under the conditions stated
below.  PLEASE READ!!!!!!

VersaTerm hint:  Rather than using Rmover to copy the supplied fonts into
the System resource file, you can just copy them into the VersaTerm
resource file instead.  That way VersaTerm always finds the fonts,
independant of what System file the mac was booted with.

[By the way - a big thanks axluxe!lra for posting this, it's a very nice
terminal emulator.]
