Does anyone know if any VT220 emulation software has been created for the Rainbow? Thanks, Neil Roth

The Rainbow is fairly close to a VT220. In some ways, that is. The keys already send the 220 escape sequences. The one area where it is weak is in the screen stuff. There have been a couple of 220 emulators for the Rainbow. Polygon software had a 220 emulator, but I never used it. There was a program called TC.PAS and TCII that supposedly did Rainbow emulation, but I never used them enough to know how well they did it. TC had full sources, while TCII (derived from TC) didn't. TCII is available from drycas.club.cc.cmu.edu if you want to give it a spin. What I want to know is if anybod ever created a 220.sys driver for the Rainbow (ala ANSI.SYS from the PC world).

VT220 Terminal Emulation There has been talk recently in this newsgroup about VT220 emulation software for the Rainbow and where to get in the USA. However where do you get it when you live in Western Australia, could you please tell me. Thanks Bruce Bown
