The TERM environment variable termcap are used by applications to know
what kind of terminal you have.  They don't tell terminal emulators
what terminal to act like.  The wsh command can't emulate a vt100.

The HP third party software catalog lists a vt100 emulator for
HP Windows/9000 from

Optimation, Inc.
Suite 282
201 San Antonio Circle
Mountain View, CA 94040
(415) 941-2021

There are no configuration files for the system menus.  You would need
to write a program that created its own menus.
