     I have used the ST as a terminal to a VAX/VMS system and a VAX/UNIX
4.2bsd system.  Seems to work nice on the bsd system, but I can't find anyway
to put the keypad into application mode to use with EDT on the VMS system.
Also on the VMS system the built-in emulator doesn't answer dec's set term/inq
command, so you must explicitly set the terminal to a vt52.
     Same is true for ST-Talk, another problem(?) with ST-Talk is due to the
information lines the useable screen length is only 21 lines.  It does however
answer the terminal inquire correctly.
     There have been a couple terminal programs posted to net.sources and/or
mod.sources for the ST, but I have no experience with them.
     If anyone knows how to put the keypad into app. mode PLEASE tell me!

i can't be done, the code was never put into the vt52 emulator, i
recommend PC/INTERCOMM VERY highly, its well work the money and does
everything i need done for communications/vt100 emulation
