We are having trouble using a Digital Vt-100 terminal with our online
catalog. The catalog is accessible through the campus computing system
to which 4000 of a number of different kinds of terminals are hardwired.
There is also dial-in access to the network, so we are learning fast
about a lot of different terminals. A VT-100 can get on the network but
our system does not recognize some (most) of the characters the VT-100
generates. It looks a lot like a parity problem, but the parity is set
correctly (odd). To make it even more confusing, if we use a PC with
XTALK emulating a VT-100, everything works fine. Any ideas?
