I have SIX VT100 real DEC terminals on my desk.
They are stacked 2 high which I can't do with a VT220
unless I build a small shelf to hold the monitor and the
keyboard.
Otherwise, I agree that the VT220 LK201 keyboard
is quite a bit more functional over the VT100 keyboard.

there are differences - I have a document done somewhere with the details. I've long ago forgotten them

Yes, certainly there are always issues with different keyboards. No helping that.
However, things like iTerm2 don't even produce correct output given escape sequences.
And yes, the VT100 predates ANSI, but it's not really incompatible, but there are a bunch of DEC private sequences, that are not in the ANSI spec.
I'm not aware of any incompatibilities with the ANSI spec, but feel free to point them out to me.

Or a VT2xx or later from DEC. Those are really solid implementations, for one thing because there was an incredibly detailed spec spelling out formally what every escape sequence does.
If we are touting our favorite VT100 emulations from the past, my pick is
the Stanford SLAC VLT (Valiant Little Terminal) program for the Amiga. I
really loved my DEC Terminals, but for those that could not afford a real
Tek terminal, an Amiga running VLT was all the rage. Too bad someone has
never ported this to a unix system.
This is my first post here, so it is a bit of an experiment.
For those of you who recognize my name, I am a rabid,
RT-11 addict who continues to run RT-11 almost every
day. I have a real DEC PDP-11/83 in the basement
with SIX DEC VT100 terminals on the desk that runs
a Mapped RT-11 Monitor with Multi-Terminal support.
It rarely gets used these days.
I also run the identical software under both Ersatz-11
and SimH on my PC. The latest benchmark I ran under
Ersatz-11 suggests a speed of about 150 times a real
DEC PDP-11/93 using the Win32 variant of Ersatz-11
on PC hardware with 16 GB of physical memory and
16 cores running a 64 bit Windows 7.
This is a plug for the VT100 emulation under Ersatz-11
which also supports most of the additional keys found
on the LK201, specifically the SIX edit keys on the LK201
above the ARROW keys. The top row on a PC 104 key
keyboard does not have sufficient keys to support all of
the Fn keys on the LK201, but most are there. In fact,
the Single Line Editor (SLX.SYS) on RT-11 actually
supports the LK201 keyboard on the VT220 - although
it does not make use of the SIX edit keys.
I have a question that I have long had difficulty with!!!!!!
When I run SimH on the same hardware, there is no VT100
emulation available, so I stick to a few basic tests. Is
there a VT100 emulator which is compatible with SimH
that can be used under both Windows XP and Windows 7
that will support at least ONE VT100 terminal? Better
yet would be Multi-terminal support for many VT100
terminals (while I am asking)?
V2.11-9 used to have about 95% of the support needed
for a VT100 with the <GOLD> key being the missing
aspect. So it is possible to be integrated into SimH.

Figure I'll move this to it's own thread instead of NOTES.

What's the history of the ANSI spec? I've always just assumed that it codified what was being used in the industry already.

I'll give you half a point for that. :-)
But honestly, so far, the best terminal emulator I've tried is xterm, which I actually are not aware of any bugs in right now. But feel free to point out the error of my ways.

While I understand the emotion on this, one of the main SW guy the vt-100 is an old friend (and screwed up the layout of two keyboards at Masscomp after to he screwed up the vt-1xx series too IMH). Tom used to say, the only real issue is keyboard layout because the rest is "just SW"
The other issue is that while the original VT-100 used ANSI sequences, it was actually not ANSI. DEC released the terminal before the ANSI was complete and there are a number of places where VT-100s differ from sequences. So this also becomes an issue (and part of what Cory is pointing out).
But the truth is a number of firms did parrot the VT-100 family sequences bug-for-bug.
The problem is as Tom, says the unless you have a DEC keyboard layout, you are mapping something and that tends the be source of much discomfort.
