Does anyone know of a VT100 (or some other similar terminal) emulation
that could be used within SmallTalk?  What I need is some way to use
vi or whatever that uses termcap to be used within a Smalltalk view.

I am using ParcPlace st80 V2.4 (and 2.3).  Given some time, I could
probably come up with some classes that would manage a character
mapped view display, and handling those escape sequences, but, I have
a feeling this has been done before.

Any information would be appreciated.
