At a minimum it should be possible to up the baud rate to 19,200 via the terminal's setup menu, I seem to recall that's what the "good" labs had going back in college. Beyond that a simple node.js[1] or python[2] script should be able provide a baud rate limited buffer.

- thristian 6y agoThe VT102 can be configured up to 19,200, but the documentation says[1]: > In applications using continuous 19,200 baud communication, occasional data errors may occur. In my experience, setting the emulated VT102 to use 19,200 makes every keypress generate a data error. Even if it worked, though, the VT102 still runs at 6MHz and it still takes just as long to scroll the screen, and my host PC is still ~infinitely fast, so I think it would just make the problem worse.
