Mostly, they don't exist. Unlike a C=64 (hey I own one) UNIX machines
have the ability to handle many different terminals (thru termcap or
terminfo). 

However, there is a vt100 terminal emulator for the UNIXpc ( from AT&T ).
It's called Asyncronous Terminal Emulator (ATE) but I don't know if it's
part of the development set or what. Anyone else?
