- vt102.zip (which is available for ftp from ftp.demon.co.uk:/pub/DIS)
- contains a hack of NNANSI.SYS which does not require changes to the
- termcap entries at the host end. Just set "TERM=vt102" (or vt100). It
- isn't perfect - line wrap doesn't work properly and there are no
- function keys - but source is included. If anyone gets around to fixing
- the line wrap problem, would they please send me a patch?
