Harry,

Out in the bitnet there is a source for a VT100 emulator which works fairly
well under OS-9. The only minor glitch with it that I have not had time to
chases it the host/terminal dialog bug. About 70% of the time when the host
ask for terminal ID the VT100 emulator does not answer back as it should.

I could mail you the source I have either in CUTS, or S-REC format and use
the AR utility to un-arc the file after cuts/decode is done.

I did post the source in one of the past notes but it has gone into the bit
bucket already unfortunately. Let me know if I can help further.
