Aterm was never meant to be a VT100 emulator. It does do ANSI 3.64, which
as I understand it, is a subset of VT100. It also happens to be the same
standard used in the Amiga's console, which Aterm uses.

Neither Jeff Lydiatt or myself are working on Aterm any more at all, so 7.3
is the last in the line unless someone else takes it from there. The source
is freely distributable, and has been for some time.

Janus? Well, look at it this way. If you squint a little, the J could be
       Amiga checkmark, and the rest of the word describes MsDos.
