Charles Herman asked for the exifor information on VT240 emulators for PC.

We are using the Poly-Com/240 emulator for Pc-Dos of Polygon
Associates Inc. It does perform the REGIS instructions and if you use
VAX-11 DECgraph it works "quit" well. However lots of my own plots
created in REGIS using Simula, which give nice pictures on VT240 are in some
way distorted by Poly-Com/240. I haven't had the time to investigate
why.
Poly-Com/240 does not emulate all features of the VT240. Most important
it does not emulate the Tektronix 4010/4014 mode.

If there are people in netland who know better emulators I would
be interested to hear about it.
