I'm running 3.2 of Telix (yup it's now available - I was a beta site).
I've had no emulation problems to ANY UNIX version.  I lost my 
access to VAX/VMS when I left DEC and TRW so I can't test against them.

I had no emulation problems with 3.12->3.15.  Make sure you have destructive
backspace off.

Telix doesn't pass the VTTEST test completely, it fails in the same place
as MS-Kermit.

The only thing I've seen that does it completely (I haven't seen most
commercial VT emulators) is Softterm.  Softterm however has the worst
user interface and file transfers.

There's a new Telix and Telix for Windows underway.   The latest message
I've seen says it'll be out next year.
