Real VT terminals have a setup options to display control characters
instead of process them.

DECterm does not have such an option.

I tried a SET HOST/LOG <decnet> to log the session to file, but it
appears that CTERM does some local editing and doesn't log some of the
editing (like backspace). So I had to use a serial port loop and an old
program of mine to log the transmissions.
