asc420 by Sysnet Corporation
----------------------------
asc420 is a terminal emulation tool. It allows users to communicate with
any computer that works with a DEC VT420 terminal and can be used by any
communications application, such as 5PM, that works with the Communications
Toolbox. Full-featured key mapping lets users choose a character set for
the keyboard and use DEC keys even if they do not appear on the Macintosh
keyboard. Visual indicators are available to replace the indicators that
usually appear on the DEC keyboard. These indicators show when the
terminal is online, using local echo, pausing while users read text that is
being written to the screen and waiting for the host.
