I'm fine with just telnet, cterm and lat. :-)
However, windows only... Hrm.
Well, isn't VTstar related to Powerterm (the thing DEC shipped with
Pathworks?)
Ok, I should also say that Powerterm seems to work absolutely right, but
then again, since it came from DEC, and also speaks both telnet, lat and
cterm (and even ssh), I would expect it to work right.
SO I lied. I actually knew one more than xterm...
(xterm, by the way, was also worked on a lot within DEC.)
