There is a package called TNVT100 available from the LISTSERV at CUNY 
(LISTSERV@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU). If I recall correctly, you send the command

     GET TNVT100 

to the server.

I saw a demonstration of this after it had been installed on the central IBM
here, and it looked OK. We can't use it just yet because it doesn't have
Hebrew support, but it did give a decent screen display.

The package is maintained by Art Ecock (ECKCU@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU).
