[comp.sys.tandy] vt132 Terminal emulator for TRS-80 Model IV

msl5864@ritcv.UUCP (Michael S. Leibow) (12/29/86)

I wrote a vt132 terminal emulator for the TRS-80 Model IV.  If there is any
interest, I'll post the object code to the net.  The only features that it lacks
from a real vt132 are things that the TRS-80 can't do.. i.e. underlining and
graphics.  My program tries to simulate as much as possible with what is
available.... It will convert vt100 type graphics to similar ascii characters.

For example, a box would be drawn like ------------
                                       |          |
                                       |          |
                                       ------------

It also has simple uploading and downloading for regular text files.

	I would be VERY interested in the emulator, is it a program or
   a filter? Please post it or , if there isn't a big enough reply, email
   me a copy. Are you planning to release the object code into the PD? I
   have an account on compuserve and I know there are some people there who'd
   like to have a REAL terminal program. Thanks for offering the emulator,
   up to now I thought the development for the 4 had died.

		Eagerly awaiting the emulator,

It is a complete program with all of its own drivers.  It uses about 40K
of memory, 8K on disk, and can support about 4800 baud perfectly.  It
will run at 19200, but it starts to buffer if there are a lot of esc
codes or cr+lf movements.
