Getting Started
Selecting The Terminal Emulation
When you load TeemTalk for the first time, the DEC VT100 emulation will be
running by default. All the terminal emulations supported by TeemTalk can be
accessed from the Emulation Settings dialog box. This is displayed by selecting
Settings in the menu bar then Emulation... The emulations available are listed in the
Emulation list box.
To change the current emulation mode, select the emulation required then click the
OK button. The emulation setting may be saved so that TeemTalk will automatically
run it when it is loaded or reset by selecting the Save Session option in the File
menu.
A brief description of the emulation options follows.
VT52 and VT100 modes enable you to run applications written for the DEC VT52
and VT100 terminals, respectively.
Tek mode provides compatibility with software designed to drive the Tektronix 4100
or 4200 series terminals. Emulation of the Tektronix 4014 terminal can be achieved
by selecting this option and setting the Dialog Area Enabled option in the Dialog
Settings dialog box to 0.
Edit mode provides compatibility with software designed to drive the DEC VT100
terminal. In this mode the following features are set to pre-determined conditions:
A. The dialog area is enabled and visible.
B. The dialog area buffer and scrolling region are set to 24 lines.
C. Cursor origin mode is set to Absolute (refer to the description of
the Cursor Origin option in the Dialog Settings dialog box).
