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.
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.

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.

The VT220 series are my favourite - nice and compact (compared to a Vt100).

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.

I suspect so. iterm2 has much more complete vtxxx support, extensions, abilities to use different HW etc. - check out the help files. You'll find reprogrammed configs for most every function I have personally looked.
The one complaint about item (first edition) and EDT is described here:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1470855?start=0&tstart=0
But I am under the impression that issue was fixed/supported in iterm2
That said, I don't use EDT on VMS so, I never looked for support for it on my Mac (vi and emacs are more to my liking) - but I know many people that loved EDT and TECO. In the early 1980's one of my co-worked wrote some elisp for emacs so the ex-VMS/EDT guys could move from UNIX. Funny, I remember the groussing at the time, although I don't think I know any of them that continued to use the crutch longer than a few months -- well except for Cantrell (who ended up writing a version of TECO in C see below), after they learned vi/emacs (like me) they went back since those editors are ubiquitous.
Clem
cut/pasted from: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?TecoEditor
Paul Cantrell has released a particularly interactive version of TECO called Video TECO. http://videoteco.sourceforge.net/ has source available via CVS. A manual for this version is at http://www.copters.com/teco.html .

OK so I'm running it - doesn't seem to do that much more than Terminal.app - am I missing something here?

Good question! I just tried my PC keyboard from a PuTTY terminal. Some
of the functions map, others do not. It looks like it will depend on
what you are working with.

Related to using NOTES, before doing the discussion on NOTES,
