I have a hardware/software package called Softerm2 that seems to be able to
emulate any dumb terminal. It has a card that adds 3 extra "shift" buttons
to the keyboard, allowing many extra defined keystrokes.
The software contains many pre-configured terminal patterns, as well as
communications software. The only problem seems to be that while the program
/card runs on a //e, it seems to get a little mixed up with mousetext. I
haven't spent the time to see if this is fixable.
Is anyone familiar with this package, and would it solve Lars' problem?
