  15. Does anyone know of a terminal emulator which allows DEC vt220s to emulate
  16. HP terminals?
  17.  
  18. We have a HP 9000/827 running HP-UX and supporting a population of
  19. predominantly VT220 terminals (and clones).  However, we've just acquired
  20. a HP 3000/927 and an accounting system which talks only to HP 700/92 (2392?)
  21. terminals.
  22.  
  23. Is there any emulation program available which will allow a vt220 on the
  24. Unix box to connect (via network or straight Rs232 comms. line) to the 
  25. 3000 and emulate a HP terminal?
  26.  
  27. Lacking this, would anyone have a terminal emulation program (or skeleton)
  28. which I could use as a base for writing such a vt220-to-hp emulator?
  29.
