We need a VT100 terminal emulator having the following 
characteristics:

1) Must run on 4.2/4.3 BSD UNIX (to use with SunOS 3.4)

2) Must use curses OR be able to translate between
   VT100 codes and Sun's ANSI (subset) terminal driver
   
3) Prefer an emulator that is NOT window-based (i.e., 
   does not rely on SunView; we want to run the emulator
   as a tty subwindow process along with some other sub-
   windows of our own creation within a window frame)
   
4) Prefer C-language source code if possible, but could
   live with binary if it's a plain-vanilla text-based
   emulator that could be run from a Sun tool program as
   described in 3)

5) Prefer public-domain code (money is not the problem;
   licensing fees for redistribution, legal hassles, and
   time required for negotiations ARE problems).
   
The target hardware/software environment is a Sun 3/110 running
SunOS 3.4 (and subsequent releases of SunOS) connected to the
outside world by a combination of RS-232 async, Ethernet, and 
X.25.
