| Is it even possible? My researches so far have not turned up a product, and in thinking about the problem, the VT100 protocol stream is richer than HTML, in some ways of looking at it. We are trying to determine the feasibility of replacing client (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jun-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

Server performance would take a serious hit, both in (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jun-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

I wonder (strictly for the sake of wondering) is it illegal to use the entire Mindterm package in the U.S., or just the bits that use the RSA algorithm? i.e., if a USian uses just the VT320 stuff and not the ssh stuff, is it legal?

If the telnet / VT100 throughput has a well- defined format, then such a gateway could use expect (or something like it) and serve HTML forms instead of relying upon the user to enter keystrokes.
