The DtTerm widget provides
the functionality required to emulate an ANSI X3.64-1979-style terminal
emulator (specifically a DEC VT220-like terminal with extensions).
The Terminal Emulator widget library, libDtTerm,
provides the DtTerm widget
for use in adding a terminal emulator window to a GUI. If you include
a terminal emulator in your application, use Common Desktop Environment
Motif widgets to add display enhancements to it such as pop-up menus
and scroll bars.
The Common Desktop Environment Terminal Emulator, which is
a part of the run-time environment, is a window that behaves as
a terminal, enabling access to traditional terminal-based applications
from within the desktop. The DtTerm
widget is the foundation for the desktop run-time terminal emulator,
dtterm.
The libDtTerm library
includes a set of convenience functions to create, access, and support
the DtTerm widget.
