Hmmm... all I know for sure is that the DEC software I wrote ran with
the VT102, VT220, and Handshake, but just sat there with JRComm.  
 
As for double height/width, does it actually use double size characters
or just double space them?  All I remember is that the Christmas tree at
logon looked like real crap :-).  It IS entirely possible that I may have
been in VT100 mode and not VT102.  Would that have made a difference?
