For users who have limited or no graphics needs then standard VersaTerm is a bargain compared to other emulators. There is the 4014 support as well as full VT100 emulation and other goodies. I would look at that version which is $100 unless you need the fancy 4105 emulation or want to save Tektronix graphics as MacDraw files (which is available on the 'Pro' version).
