You can also use the program "vtem", which is somewhere in a
comp.source archive. A newer version, updated by jqj@hogg.cc.uoregon.edu,
is included in in my vttool program (available via ftp on
titan.rice.edu, ~/sun-sources/vttool.shar.?)
This program should run on almost any terminal, and it passed the
vttest program. It does use pty's and is written for berkeley unix.
If you are running X or SunView - the rest of the vttool package
can provide a window-based panel for clicking function keys your
terminal might not have. It also does keyboard remapping.
It requires SunView or XView libraries.
