[comp.sys.misc] Terminal Software Wanted for Burroughs B21

ciaraldi@cs.rochester.edu (Mike Ciaraldi) (09/07/88)

I'm looking for terminal emulation software for the Burroughs B21 system.
This is a small system running an operating system called BTOS.
It is actually made by Convergent Technology and OEM'd by Burroughs.

I got a copy of Kermit from Columbia, which worked fine 
on a B25.  But the B25 and B21 are not really compatible, I have
been told.  The older B21 series and the newer B25 are generally 
source-code compatible, but not object-code compatible.
And I don't have a C compiler for the B21.

What I would like would be a program that would emulate a VT100 terminal,
although any video terminal would probably be OK.
A plus would be the ability to capture the current screen to either
printer or disk, as we will use it for full-screen data base access.
File transfer is not really needed.

If anyone has any ideas on either commercial or public-domain 
software that would do this, I would appreciate it.

Thanks.
