I have been using only PC/Windows VT-emulators for 20+ years and not
touch a "real" terminal, they just makes me mad for the very limited
functionality they have. No logging to a file. No cut-n-paste to my
standard Windows email and office tools. Even as a "console" they
are more or useless, the LA120 at least left a hardcopy printout...

There are some rumors about lack of compatibility around.
Someone hade a script that tested DW/DH "problems". Worked
just fine in both Reflection and PyTTY when I tested...
I have not seen any compatibility issues that have been
real show-stoppers. No compatibilty issues at all, actualy.

Jan-Erik.
