Not that I know of.  HP does have an HP terminal emulator under X (called,
oddly enough, `hpterm') that ships with HP-UX.  I dunno if HP would be
very receptive to selling you the source to compile on the SPARC, and even
they did, it seems that hpterm relies in some way on HP-specific server
extentions (at least, thats what the error messages indicate).

I've only played with hpterm briefly...thats all I know...
