Hello Folks,
  I have the uncertain fortune of a direct link into a Data General MV/8000
running AOS.  My UNIX pc can emulate a VT100 (although this doesn't seem to
work over the serial port using async_main).  Nevertheless, the Data General
is extremely fussy about the terminal types on which it will deign to run the
vi editor.
  Does anybody have a Data General Terminal Emulator that might run under
unix?  I am presently using raw s4 terminal mode via /usr/bin/cu with abilities
limited to that of a glass TTY.  A specialized version for the UNIX pc would
be spiffy, but I recognize that is a lot to ask.  Thanks.
