Is it ok to remove the "thereof"? Just
"This is a program ... terminal (or emulator)."

I think "escape sequence handling" is correct, but it is ok to remove
the "handling".

I planed to use those listed below if nobody reject it:
====================================================================
Short description: tool for testing VT100 compatibility of terminals

Long description:
 This is a program designed to test the functionality of a VT100
 terminal (or emulator). Analysis of VT220, VT420, and xterm are also
 provided.
 .
 The program is menu-driven and contains full on-line operating
 instructions. It tests both display (escape sequence) and keyboard
 handling.
====================================================================

Thanks to Justin.

Kind regards
