- We have users who need to use some VMS application from HP
- workstations. Problem is this application heavily depends on
- functionality of VT2xx terminal for it's keyboard (function keys,
- mainly) and special characters. We can use xterm and setup key
- translation to remap keyboard for some of VT220 function keys, but
- xterm does not understand all the special characters for all the
- border lines which the application use for character terminal
- windowing.
-
- We can run DECterm on VAX and display back to HP, but then there is no
- (at least documented) way of remapping function keys.
-
- So my question is: Is there good VT emulator which runs on HP which
- could understand all special characters and which is capable of
- remapping function keys? Commercial, public domain, any kind of info
- appreciated.
