Tests the functionality of a VT100 terminal (or emulator thereof). Tests both display (escape sequence handling) and keyboard. The program is menu-driven and contains full operating instructions. To run a given menu-item, you enter its number. You can run all menu-items (for a given level) by entering an asterisk, i.e, '*'.
It has been enhanced to support and test many xterm control and status escape sequences, and it is mainly used nowadays for testing emulator compatibility.
