	"And what does VMS do to avoid "wrapping" in the middle of an
	escape sequence?  Or does the tty driver track the terminal
	type and parse all the escape sequences?"

It's my impression that VMS implements the "SET TTY AUTOWRAP" command
by simply transmitting the VT-100 "turn on autowrap" escape sequence.
Any VMS experts out there who know for sure?
