Well, I use ProTERM v2.2 w/VT100 emulation and have had no problems, actually
I'm impressed by the on-screen cursor movement that the Apple //e has using
VT100.  Inverse text is also useful.  Concerning the IBM, I think that what-
ever is inverse on the Apple under VT100 is Boldfaced on an IBM, but I'm not
too sure about that, I haven't had much experience with VT100 on an IBM.
