Subject: MexPack VT100 Emulator

 
Gordon Marwood asked about VT100 emulators.  The MexPack (and MexPlus) VT100
emulator package is still available for purchase.  My wife's company, Sage
Microsystems East, sells it, as does I am sure NightOwl software (the author
Ron Fowler's company).  MexPack includes a few emulators and other items and
costs either $30 or $40, I believe, as an option with Mex-Plus (which is $50
or $60, I believe -- the combination is no more than $100).  Sorry that I
don't remember the exact price.  Obviously, I can get it.
 
The VT100 emulation is limited to what can reasonably be done on a screen. 
Thus it does not include 132-character width or double-height formats.  It
may support scroll windows, but I am not sure of that.  It does require that
the host system have certain facilities, including insert and delete line
capability.
 
Let me know if you have further questions or interest.
