[HECnet] Vt100 tester

I have built an .XResources file with this content: XTerm.vt100.decTerminalID: 220 XTerm.vt100.allowScrollLock: True XTerm.vt100.appkeypadDefault: True XTerm.vt100.backarrowKey: False XTerm.vt100.c132: True XTerm.vt100.cursorBlink: True XTerm.vt100.fontWarnings: 1 XTerm.vt100.geometry: 80x25 XTerm.vt100.faceName: lucida console XTerm.vt100.faceSize: 12.0 XTerm.vt100.utf8: false XTerm.vt100.locale: ISO8859-1 XTerm.vt100.keyboardType: vt220 XTerm.vt100.keyboardDialect: Z (The "Z" keyboard dialect corresponds to the spanish DEC keyboard) Now it seems to work quite well displaying stuff, and the keypad and the rest of application keys work, BUT the 8 bit spanish/catalan symbols DO NOT. What is curious about this is if I connect to a linux/OSX system the 8-bit stuff works (characters like , , , and vowels with tilde). But as soon as I connect to an VMS machine it DOES not. It seems to drop the highest bit. The .Xresources configuration is the final one I worked on (the keyboardType and keyboardDialect are late additions, just to try to fix it). I have not been able to make it work with the local keys... Any idea? How do you connect to the VMS system?
