[comp.sys.atari.st] vt100 emulator

pmt@sbcs.UUCP (04/03/87)

 Can someone point me (or better still, email me) to a GOOD VT100 emulator.
The one in Uniterm is GOOD, but I don't want a 180K thing hogging my RAMdisk.
Thanks in advance.

 BTW, the new postings of Spacewar3.1
      had the last 2 files truncated 
      by about 100 bytes when it
      arrived here.   arrgghhhh ......

Ok, I have been using Gulam now for some time.  I have been using Uniterm for
its VT100 support.  However, I would like a small .TTP or .TOS program that 
supports VT100 and has no other features.  Just run it and it communicates 
with the Modem and takes VT100 screen codes.  Oh, I guess a Quit command, via
the Undo key, but that is it.  I would like to type "term" and have this come
up instead of the Gulam term command (which is vt52, not 100).  C-Kermit is
also just vt52 (for those who know what I am talking about), so it doesn't help
me as a terminal program.  Since I am starting to like C-Kermit because of its
similarity to C-Kermit under unix, and I only use Uniterm for the VT100 stuff,
then I don't really need all that Uniterm offers.

I have tried all the terminal programs from atari.archive and they all seem to
be just vt52.  

If I have overlooked one somewhere, please point me to it, as in what FTP site
it is at.  This seems like a simple thing, since all I want (need) is vt100
support.  Maybe someone who has experience programming with vt100 codes can 
whip this up.

Thanks in advance,
