[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] seeking terminal emulator recommendations

barry@medicus.com (Barrelda Q. Nammowitz) (07/26/90)

I am looking for a terminal emulator program that runs on an IBM
PC.  I have looked at a few so far, and some come close to what I need,
but none have quite made it.

If anyone know of an emulator that they think is good, PLEASE
PLEASE PLEASE send me email about it.  Availability of source code 
would be a big plus, but is not required.

Features I need:
	1.  Fairly complete vt100, vt??? or ANSI 3.64 emulation. In
		 particular, the following features should be supported:
		 - cursor positioning
		 - clear line/display
		 - delete line
		 - scroll text
		 - turn cursor on/off
		 - line wrap on/off	
		 - set foreground/background color
		 - text attributes: inverse, underline, blink
	2.  Remappable function keys
	3.  Ability to distinguish shifted function keys,
		 control-function keys, and shifted arrow keys.

Any advice or pointers will be gratefully accepted.
Please reply by email, even if you want to post a reply as well.
