This was not very widely spread, but I once knew a fellow that had this
eprom on his TS-803... it even came with special key caps. The product
was a third-party add-on.

Also, related info: there was a product from Digital Engineering in
Sacramento, (916) 447-7600 that gave the TeleVideo 910, 912, 920, 925
and 950 Tektronix 4027 and 4010 emulation... also Selanar Graphics in
Santa Clara, (408) 727-2811 offered a similar product.

Sorry to say that I can't tell you who had the WordStar modification for
these units though.

BTW, WordStar has no problem with these terminals, except that the
control commands are different than produced by the editing keys, so you
have to use the ctrl-key, as per normal for WordStar on most machines.
