Through a set of experiences too boring to relate here, I find myself the
proud owner of a Wyse 100 (WY-100) terminal. This terminal seems to be
fairly high in potential, however the software which controls it is oriented
towards being involved in "turnkey" operations, with the emphasis on
local operations and block transmissions.
The point of this message is, I would like to transform this terminal into
something I can use, which probably means having VT-100 emulation/imitation.
The Wyse people did not seem to understand what I wanted, but supplied me
with schematics. Before I write VT-100 emulation "firmware", I'd really
rather see if somebody else has already done this. Any leads to this end
would be greatly appreciated. As always, if anyone actually has an answer
to this, please mail it to me rather than posting it to the net.
Thanks much,
Mark Mallett

If you are using a Unix* system a tvi950 (Televideo 950) termcap should work fairly well. If not then it is a major job to emulate a VT100. Sorry.
