Are there any vt100 test packages that do a good job
testing for full vt100 compliance (including
if possible any "features/bugs" that exist in the
real thing)?  Public domain code is best, but 
I would be interested in commercial packages if they're 
any good.

I have a copy of "vttest".  Can anyone offer pointers
for making it work in a stock UNIX V world.  Specifically,
how to implement the "FIONREAD" parameter in the ioctl
calls.  The note Rich $alz added to the README file also
mentions "check out the setjmp() call ..." 

Thanks in advance.
