I hope it wasn't the F word - flippin' 'eck - darn shame that :-)

No, guess who's going to get more hassle tomorrow ...

It'll work if the screen flickers right - try making sure VT52 is 
already loaded. One sort of flicker means "I'm crashing soon", the 
other means "I'll crash sometime after the VT52 window closes".

If I can't find VT100 soon I might just do that. I bet there's no Ansi 
specs to be had either but if you know different send me them!

Somebody did tell me on #atari where I could get the full VT100 specs. 
It was at gatekeeper.dec.com but when I looked it was so vast I still 
hadn't found anything after an hour and a half.

I remember who it was, I think <RadaK> ?

Could somebody ask him if he knows where, it's impossible for me 
unless it's very quiet.
