Re: [M100] VT100 Emulation and DVi

Seems like there are a lot of tough ones... Word wrap, relative position /
simple windowing taking significant work.

M100 is simpler than vt100. So it seems trivial to map m100 escapes to
vt100. But mapping vt100 back to m100 would only be easy for a subset of
vt100 escapes.

But that "might* still be useful depending on what bbs's tend to use.

There are a couple of hard ones John.
Didn't we go through them and conclude certain m100 sequences could not be
done on VT100?
Having said that I don't recall which ones for sure.

How different is vt100 from the m100's native terminal emulation (mostly
vt52). What's missing that you need...

I could map necessary codes in HTERM.  It already does a lot of processing
to map utf8 characters and xterm escapes. In fact that's most of what HTERM
does aside fromn hardware flow control.

In 1991 I used to call text only BBSs all the time and even go on the
internet a bit with my Model 100 at 300 baud.

[M100] VT100 Emulation and DVi

2023-11-26 Thread grima...@gmail.com
Hi all,

I recently decided to take my main battle-station (apple iie) out of
service, so I can dedicate more space to my Tandy 102.

What I have found though, is that the Model 100 isn’t quite ideal for
BBSing, even with the DVI. A lot of systems assume VT100 emulation, which
Apple did have.

I tried using VTEMUL, but it assume you are using the the built in screen,
so it doesn’t work properly with the DVI.

The creator of VTEMUL was looking to adapt the program to the DVI according
to this post.

https://github.com/LivingM100SIG/Living_M100SIG/blob/main/M100SIG/Lib-03-TELCOM/VTEMUL.THD

Anyone know if the DVI compatible version exists?
