 THE DEC VT102 TERMINAL TYPE

 The DEC VT102 terminal is one of the most popular (and most
 emulated) terminals in existence. It was developed by Digital
 Equipment Corporation. The VT102 terminal has a large number
 of functions. Telix supports all of these except for 132 col-
 umn mode and double height mode. As well, Telix only emulates
 double width mode, by adding a space after every character.

 Telix fully supports both normal and application cursor mode
 in VT emulation. The VT102 keyboard layout used by Telix is
 stored in the VT102.KEY file, which is automatically read by
 Telix when VT102 terminal emulation is selected. Once Telix
 has loaded this into memory, the definitions can be edited
 through the use of the Alt-K (Keyboard/macros) function.

 The default keyboard layout is best suited for the (newer) 101-key
 style keyboards with separate arrow and numeric keypads, and functions
 keys across the top. In this layout, press F1 to F4 to simulate the
 VT's PF1 to PF4. With the NumLock key down, the PC's numeric keypad
 will simulate the VT's numeric keypad, while the arrow keys on the
 PC's numeric keypad (with the NumLock up) or the separate arrow keypad
 (at all times) will simulate the VT's arrow keys. Note that Telix will
 only recognize the separate arrow keypad if you turn on the 'Enhanced
 Keyboard' setting on the General Options screen of the Configuration
 Menu.

 Another keyboard layout is available that is possibly better suited to
 older style keyboards with function keys on on the left side and no
 separate arrow keypad and numeric keypad. To make use of this alter-
 nate layout, while at the DOS prompt type:

      ren VT102.KEY VT102101.KEY
      ren VT102OLD.KEY VT102.KEY

 This layout is similar to one used by many comm programs, in which the
 normal function keys (F1-F10) represent the left side of the VT's nu-
 meric keypad, while the shifted function keys (Shift-F1 - Shift-F10)
 represent the right side, as follows:

 The arrow keys are also defined to send the proper sequences.
