The Tek4025 is without doubt one of the most poorly designed terminals ever made. I would advise getting a better terminal. However, if you really want to try to use the 4025 with termcap-using programs, here's the best we could come up with: # Tektronix 4025A # The following status modes are assumed for normal operation (replace the # initial "!" by whatever the current command character is): # !COM 29 # NOTE: changes command character to GS (^]) # ^]DUP # ^]ECH R # ^]EOL # ^]RSS T # ^]SNO N # ^]STO 9 17 25 33 41 49 57 65 73 # Other modes may be set according to communication requirements. # If the command character is inadvertently changed, termcap can't restore it. # Insert-character cannot be made to work on both top and bottom rows. # Clear-to-end-of-display emulation via !DLI 988 is too groady to use, alas. # There also seems to be a problem with vertical motion, perhaps involving # delete/insert-line, following a typed carriage return. This terminal sucks. # No delays are specified; use "stty ixon -ixany" to enable DC3/DC1 flow control!
