The videx videoterm was very popular. I had a clone of that card that I used
(mostly for CP/M) but some comm programs supported it as well.

Was there a particular type of terminal you wanted to emulate or just ANSI
for BBS type use?

I used to use Kermit under CP/M to access the universities IBM mainframe
..... but there were quite a few others out there .... I havn't used a modem
in years though....

Good luck
