Yes that is right. I have MAME software too. That emulates a lot more than just arcades including UNIX workstations and terminals. There are some dot matrix printer emulation like MPS-802, etc.
SecureCRT do not emulates ReGIS commands for graphics. I have some progems need ReGIS emulation. There is VT240 emulation on MAME support ReGIS graphics. We discussed about VT340 terminal emulation and dumping firmware a few years ago but they did not implement VT340 emulation on MAME. Also, there is VT420 firmware available for terminal emulation but they had not implemented that yet. Also they need to implement VT125 emulation since there are VT125 firmware images on the Internet. Also I found LA210 technical manuals and schematics that emulate Epson MX80 printer but uses 8085A processor instead of 8048 processor (in MX80 printer). I was looking for LA210 firmwares but had not find them yet. I have a copy of Epson MX80 firmwares and technical manual for implementing printer emulation. I discovered Hercules studio’s printer emulation that produces PDF files. Take a look on http://www.softdevlabs.com/hercprt.html Also I found older version of Hercules studio source codes that includes hercprt module on SourceForge. I think that printer emulation implementation is needed for SIMH emulator for line printer, dot matrix printer, etc. From: Simh <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Patrick Finnegan Sent: Wednesday, July 1, 2020 1:07 PM To: SIMH <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Simh] EXT : MAME and simh On Wed, Jul 1, 2020, 12:37 Dan Gahlinger <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: or SecureCRT which has a whole slew of VT terminal support, control and options. free for 30 days but definitely worth the price. it's what I use for my vax emulation with simh MAME is multi ARCADE machine emulator, and while it may support or use the roms for VT terminals, it's only meant for use with the game machines that need it. don't ask me which ones, I have no idea. MAME emulates a lot more than you think, including various workstations and terminals. Just like simh emulates more than just DEC hardware. http://www.progettoemma.net/mess/sysset.php Also, Peter said he's using Linux. Idk why everyone is trying to suggest Windows terminal emulators to him. There's a lot better VT terminal emulators than Putty and SecureCRT on Linux. Pat
