  Description     : VT100/VT220/XTerm compatiblity test utility

This is a program to test the compatibility (or to demonstrate the
non-compatibility) of so-called "VT100-compatible" terminals. In
conformance of the good old hacker traditions, the only documentation of
this program is the source code itself. To understand it, you also need
a copy of the original VT100 manual from DEC.

Additional tests (past version 1.7) are provided for analysis of vt220,
vt420 terminals, as well as variants of xterm.
