[comp.sys.atari.st] Terminal Emulation in Flash

pyr579@oz.plymouth.edu (Technoid) (04/10/91)

Hello netters,

	I use Flash ver 1.6 and ANSI to emulate VT100 ( ALT-M ). However,
I would like to emulate something more along the lines of VT220 or higher.
Can the translation table be modified to do this? If so has anyone done this
already? VT100 is fine for my purposes, but it would be nice to change if
someone knew how.

Thanks,

	Stephan

There is a translation table in Flash, but I don't think you could emulate
a different terminal type just by adjusting it.  This is my only gripe 
about Flash 1.6, it is not very configurable (as compared to Uniterm).  I 
once heard of a Flash 2.0 coming out (I think in Znet), anyone know about  
it?  Anyway, if you want to go VT220, get Uniterm 2.0e.  I believe you just
select it via radio button, and away you go.
