- I'm rather disappointed with what I've tried out from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.
- And I tried almost everything there.
-
- I just cannot seem to get a good vt100 emulation. Everytime I try to
- edit something (with VI, if that matters), characters get 'blanked'
- over with a left-cursor press (not backspace). Things don't seem
- 'solid'. Y'know?
-
- So I end up using a Windows term program (UNIX Windows), which in the 1.04
- incarnation has excellent vt100.
-
- With this in mind, can anyone point to a simple vt100 term program?
-
- Also, is it generally agree that the Softterm that come swith OS/2 is unusable?
-
- Hmm, maybe I'll look into commercial programs, I hate loading up WINOS/2 every
- time I want to check email.
