This emulator is Windows only.

The VMS bug fixes were applied by the author after I tried using his
emulator with EVE. I've no idea what other issues might exist with
this emulator as it fell over during my initial tests and I couldn't
really justify spending any more time evaluating it after the author
fixed the problems I reported (this was a work related evaluation of
all the open source terminal emulators available for Windows).

I discussed it in comp.terminals about a year ago and the discussion
is archived here:

Note that due to his website being out of date at the time I did the
evaluation I wasn't 100% sure afterwards if I was testing the latest
version at that time, but the author verified at least one other bug
after I pointed him to a VMS system.

Simon.
