Tony Waters asked about VT52/100 emulation for CP/M computers.  One way to do
this is to get the commercial version of MEX (MEX-Plus) with the emulation
package.  The trouble is I am not completely sure what features have to be
supported in the host terminal to make the emulation work.  Certain cursor
addressing, screen clearing, and line clearing are needed.  I believe that
insert-line and delete-line are also needed, and I cannot remember whether
or not the Kaypro supports those features.  My guess is that it does.  The
cost is about $90, but you get all the other good things that MEX offers in
the process.
