All of its emulation modes are based on televideo 920 family terminals, 925, 950, 955, etc as well as some other stupid terminals. No ansii. also, most non-alpha keys are reprogrammable, with the exception of the keypad which never is. >i heard some rumors when it first came out that it was not fast enough to >keep up with 9600 baud output without flow control. is that still >the case? It is the case with the one I am typing on now. >is it a good terminal? I'd be hard pressed between this and a used tvi970. the wyse60 has a cleaner display as well as 43x132, 43x80, 25x80, and 25x132 modes but I miss the keypad and the ansii control sequences. xoxorich.
