This terminal was very influential.

How come?

P73237
Alot of the terminal emulators were patterned off of it. If you use rxvt, urxvt, xterm, screen etc you are using code to connect as a terminal in the VT family. You'd be hard pressed to think of a connection that doesn't use VT*. Maybe the 3270?

Very interesting. What about tmux?

hi histywisty, it's saucepan

tmux is a terminal multiplexor

it let's you switch between tty's and emulate multiple terminal screens side by side

the short answer is yes

UGGHH I acccidentall ypressed the breask button have to type all over again!!!

ain't screen or two terminals + two RS232 ports better? pseudo terminals don't allow custom baudrates, but they do pictures, fancy ASCIIs. well no matter what terminal you use, lambda will still be bloaty. This thing is made for tor browser faggots
a

I have never used tmux. is tmux more complicated than screen?

P73334

tmux won't help you make you terminal slow

tmux is not good on a slow terminal, screen is better

tmux is like screen with some extra features that you wouldn't be interested in

They are mostly the same. ctrl-a is command keys for Screen, ctrl-b for tmux. I have a nice .screenrc. Screen works well when remote login to non-Linux systems like VMS.

Check out my virtual X terminal thin client. It has no fixed disk, is network booted off an Infoserver100, and is running X clients from a third node over DECnet.

can u telenet into vaxxed inviduals and target them per their social credit score?

Someone has mirrored Slackware64. Over gopher.

The vaxstation3100m30 (simh) can be used as a virtual (color, GPX) Xterminal. Only the m30 model seems to work. It's booted with VAXELN EWS off another network node. Note the copyright date - a network-transparent GUI back then. That's before Windows 3.1, which didn't even have such networking.

I just realized that the "Robco" terminal in the Fallout games is actually patterned off of OpenVMS.

>set term/inquire ...
This is a valid command, often set in the login.com procedure

>set file/protection ...
Also valid VMS, including the permissions: Read,Write,Exec,Delete (RWED)

>accounts.f ...
FORTRAN programs end in *.f

>run deb ...
"run program" is the command to run a program in VMS. Old VMS systems were commonly green-screen or amber-screen. Both are in all caps by default.

As an Easter egg, I set node Kushala Daora's SYS$ANNOUNCE to "WELCOME TO ROBCO INDUSTRIES (TM) TERMINAL" until next reboot. Use Cool Retro Term for full effect.
