A friend of mine is looking for a terminal program for the Mac that emulates the DEC VT220 terminal. He is connecting to a VAX running VMS and would like to emulate the same terminal that he uses at work. I think function key compatibility is important, too. This is important-- if he can't find this capability on the Macintosh he may decide to buy an IBM compatible PC (shudder) instead! <Kevin Kinnear (312) 979-6502
