I seem to remember having tested SecureCRT once, and found a few incorrect behaviors in there. But I no longer remember the details.

So far, the only emulators I have tested that did not do things wrong one way or another have been xterm and DEC's terminal program supplied with Pathworks. I do remember back in the day that MS-Kermit was usually very good, but I have never properly tested if it really handles some of the more odd issues I've found elsewhere.

And I have a small list of my favorite tests that I usually run through when checking, so I am not using VTTEST.

Tony,
that is very cool!
As far as I can see, SecureCRT (v8.7.2-May/2020) appears to produce expected results, nice! I'll have to go through all the options in all the submenus, which could take a while.

    Actually, xterm can support both regis and sixel. However, I don't
    think
    it supports soft fonts.

    I have not tested the graphics extensions to xterm very much though, so
    I don't know how good they might be.

    I am truly curious if MAME really handles the soft scrolling as done by
    the VT100...


The VTTEST program will help verify features of a terminal emulation
(for VT100 and variants, VT200-series, etc).
