The new version of VersaTerm (v 4.1, ~$150) supports full vt220 (even double high, double wide characters). Then you buy the TCP/IP driver for VersaTerm from InterCon (another $150). BTW, don't but VersaTerm PRO unless you realy need the extra tek emulation - don't remember which terminal it adds -- regular VersaTerm does 4014. Of course you could just buy MacConnect for about the same $$ (if you wait for version 2.0 they throw in NNTP). I like VersaTerm's interface but I'm not sure it's worth the extra expense. -- "The universe is not only queerer than we imagine, but it is queerer than we can imagine." J.B.S.
