One of our user groups here is replacing a huge old HP/UX system with Sun
Sparcstations.  His users (astronomers all, not computeroids) are used to
using HP terminals, and SunView and Open Windows confuse and upset them.
Jed would like to find a windowing terminal emulator (like xterm) that
mimics an HP terminal rather than a VT102 or a Tek4014.  Does such an
animal exist?  He has tried setting his TERM environment variable to one
of the HP terminals listed in /etc/termcap, with indifferent success.

Short of bugging HP, is there a solution to his problem?
