[comp.terminals] VT102 Series: The Alternate Rom Character Set ...

Mayer Goldberg <mayer@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu> (03/25/91)

In the manuals for the vt102, vt131 and related models (e.g.
The vt102 manual, page 84), there is a mention of an
"alternate ROM character set". The idea is that there is a
slot on the main board in the vt100/vt102/vt131 wheree you can
place a PROM with your own char set. Does anyone know what is
the format used in those ROM chips for encoding the alternate
char set? Alternately, if anyone has such an existing chip for
some char set, would that person be able to send me a listing
of the content of the chip? Also, any such chips for sale,
with or without the terminal would interest me.

Thanks,
