+with XFree86 (more commonly known as modern, or "new xterm",
with a corresponding terminal description "xterm-new"),
which was based on the X11R6.3 xterm, with the addition of ANSI color and
VT220 controls.
+<h2><A NAME="what_is_vt220">What is a VT220?</A></h2>
+<h3>Why a VT220?</h3>
+The manual page mentions a VT220.
+Most terminal emulators documentation talk about VT100.
+But a VT100 is a rather limited subset of what people expect:
+<ul>
+<li>VT100s have no function keys.
+Arguably, PF1-PF4 are function keys.
+My keyboard has 12 function keys.
+<li>VT100s do not do
+<a href="../ncurses/ncurses.faq.html">color</a>.
+</ul>
+<p>
+Initially, I was only interested in making colors workable for curses
+programs.
+<p>
+Later, I noticed that xterm had some support for what would now be termed as ISO-2022.
+That was a VT220 feature, rather than VT100.
+There were some missing pieces.
+So I decided to fill in those pieces and make xterm a VT220 emulator.
+(VT220s do not do ANSI color either—the missing pieces were in other areas).
+<p>
+Xterm also provides features that are in neither VT100 nor VT220,
+which are used by other programs as "xterm emulation".
+<ul>
+<li>set (and retrieve) window- and icon-labels using escape sequences.
+<li>interpret mouse clicks as escape sequences that can be read by a program.
+</ul>
+By the way, the control string used for setting the titles was
+not in a standard format:
+<ul>
+<li>In X10 (1988), the string was simply terminated by any nonprinting character.
+<li>X11R4 (1989) modified that to ensure that the nonprinting character is an
+ASCII BEL (control/G).
+<li>There is no explanation in the (sketchy) notes distributed with the
+X11R4 xterm;
+in retrospect it seems that the most likely explanation for the choice is
+that it was simpler to implement in shell scripts than <code>ESC \</code>.
+</ul>
+<p>
+I revised that area <a href="xterm.log.html#xterm_24">starting in 1996</a>,
+<ul>
+<li>first to use xterm's state table for handling the input, and then
+<li>to accept the standard string terminator as well.
+</ul>
+<h3>What is a State Table?</h3>
+That was mentioned regarding the title strings.
+Xterm uses a state machine to handle incoming characters.
+That is essentially what a real terminal does.
+Other "xterm" terminal emulators typically do not do this,
+which makes them not do well with <A HREF="../vttest/vttest.html">vttest</A>.

The terminator "\007" is a problem area. Xterm historically uses this
character, though it is non-ANSI. The "correct" character should be

+Modern xterm recognizes either (the "\007" or string terminator);
waiting for the first of these.
