Hello net world:

I am looking for a solid terminal that can meets the following
requirments:

           - Some standard terminal emulation (vt220 or something common)
           - can handle RS-232 and   RS-422 or RS-423
           - 38400 bps is a must (19200 if it can keep up for a whole
             screen worth of data).
           - has a PC101 keyboard layout (IBM enhanced keyboard)
           - can generate a unique ascii sequence (you know, like escape
             sequences) for all the function keys F1-F12, insert-home-
             ...Page Down, arrow keys, print-screen scroll-lock and
             pause keys
           - must also generate key sequences for SHIFTed keys mentioned
             above, ALTed keys above, and CTRLed keys above.

Basically, I want a terminal that can use the same keyboard map for UNIX
WordPerfect as IBM-PC WordPerfect, and other common applications (like
3270 emulation).  

Any takers?  any happy users? please e-mail
to bminnebo@vela.acs.oakland.edu.

Thanks in Advance!
