I need an Xwindows-based vt1xx or vt2xx terminal emulator for Suns which
will 

   o handle vt1xx "graphics" correctly;
   o provide emulation of the keypad.

Those are the two places where the xterm which we have around here fails.
What I want to do is do telnets to some VAX/VMS machines (sigh) and run
some applications which expect to be running on a vt1xx or vt2xx.  

Freely-redistributable stuff is most welcome (of course), but we could
probably spring some $$$ for such a thing, if it really works.  I'd prefer
X over Sunview, since most everyone here works under X.  Still . . .

Please respond by mail, and I'll summarize if indicated.

Thanks!
John Kimball
