 One of the strongpoints of Macterminal to me is it's
 ability to operate in VT-100 emulation mode.  However,
 since the Mac does not come with a numeric keypad, how does
 one duplicate VT-100 commands issued from the VT-100 keypad?
 I know that in 3278 emulation mode, there is a pull down
 menu that allows you to access the 3278 PF keys.  Is there
 a similar pull down menu for the VT-100 numeric keypad
 PF keys?  Does the Mac add-on numeric keypad allow itself to
 be used as the VT-100 keypad?  Or, are you not allowed to
 use the VT-100's numeric keypad PF keys at all?

 I'd like to use a Mac with Macterminal on a VAX with VMS,
 and I hate the thought of giving up all of my VT-100
 keypad editing keys that I use in the editor.

Macterminal version 0.5x DOES have the pull-down keyboard for vt-100
and I have used it with a VAX running VMS, and it works GREAT!!!

It also, to my pleasent suprise, supports the double high characters
and the character-line graphics of the vt-100/vt-102!!
