Some time ago I made a request for information on a "super h19 rom"
that I'd heard about. Not only did I get a reply, but I bought one
of the beasts, AND I also got a lot of requests for that information.
There IS such a thing. It is called the Super 19 Rom, is a replacement
ROM for the Heath H19/Zenith Z19 etc terminal, and it is available
for $50 from

It has a number of good things, some of which are:
- It can operate at 38.4 k baud. Unfortunately the serial port on
my Z80 can only go at 19.2kb...
- Supports alternate character sets (but doesn't include any; there
is another rom slot for that)
- VT100 emulation, excluding some obvious things that the hardware won't
support.
- Definable scroll area.
There's quite a bit more, but I find the increased speed worth the
money.
