2935.0. "VT1000 emulate VT330?" by CRACKR::SYSTEM (Philip Ritz) Thu Jun 14 1990 17:54

Can a VT1000 emulate a VT330?

A friend was using a VT340 with a cad application that uses the terminals
extended commands.  He just baught a VT1000 V1.2 and the terminal will not
display the data when typed.  The DECterm Customize General only shows a
VT220 ID.

Can he upgrade ?

My VT1000 claims it can emulate a VT320.  A VT330 has graphics, doesn't it?

Re: .0

DECterm emulates most but not all features of the VT330.  Can you find out
what features this program using?

By the way, the Terminal ID has nothing to do with what features DECterm
supports.

Re: .1

The local VTE doesn't do graphics, but .0 said DECterm, not VTE.

Re: .2

.0 may have said "DECterm" but I thought it was clear that it was the
VT1000's terminal emulator that was being discussed.

This actually has nothing to do with DECwindows.  There is a conference for
the VT1000 at MARVIN::VT1000.
