Compared to what?
If you have a keyboard that looks anything like a PC keyboard, it looks a lot
like the MS-DOS WordPerfect.  If you don't like that, that's another story.

The keyboard mapping for the vt100 was a little hard to get used to.
It wasn't until after I used it via MS-Kermit, with the "natural" keyboard
that I learned how to use it properly, then the vt100 keyboard made sense.

Again, "ugly" verses your favorite, which is ???
