I am searching for a VT220 terminal emulator which can handle VT200 -
8-bit cursor and numeric keypad ESCape Sequences. For example it should
be able to send the following cursor control sequences in Application
mode:

	Application	Up	8F A		8F (hex) = 143 (dec)
			Down	8F B
			Right	8F C
			Left	8F D
Can anyone help?

Ideally I would have liked to have used Uniterm but my reading of the
manual (see Page 26 (para 6.3.2) 'C0/C1 modes') would seem to imply that
only VT200-7bit cursor keys can be sent by the cursor and keypad keys and
that you can not send VT200-8bit sequences. Furthermore, I don't think
you can re-program the unshifted cursor keys.

So if you know of a good VT220 emulator which can satisfy my purposes or
indeed if you know how to reprogram Uniterm to achieve the same effect
please let me know.

Many thanks.
