- rbanffy 6y agoLooks like the Tektronix mode some terminals had back then. https://github.com/rbanffy/fun_with_tektronix https://github.com/rbanffy/fun_with_tektronix
- tyingq 6y agoXterm still has Tektronix emulation. You should see "Show Tek Window" in the middle button menu.
- rbanffy 6y agoI just suggested it be added to VTE. Not sure the maintainers will like it. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vte/-/issues/328 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vte/-/issues/328
- tyingq 6y agoHah! I saw your note about programmatically entering Tek mode from xterm. You can do: echo -e "\e[?38h" from the vt100 window to launch the Tek window. Then echo -e "\e\x03" from the Tek window to switch input back to the vt100 window. Edit: Hrm. I did try it out before posting, and it worked. So not sure why it isn't working for you.
- rbanffy 6y agoFunny. I tried that while writing it, but it didn't work. These are the character sequences the VT-300 series uses.
