[HECnet] VAX/Smalltalk-80

[Timothy Stark]

Yes, In 1980s, I had a computer graphics class at my university.  I wrote a program to display Lissajous on VT125 and VT240 terminal by using ReGIS language and Tek 4207 color graphics terminal by using ! commands. 

Does anyone have any emulator with Tek 4207 graphics terminal?  I only found Tek 4207 technical and user manual so far. That provides complete technical information for developing Tek4207 emulator but still need firmware images. 

Microfocus have some Reflection products emulate VT240, VT330 and VT340.  I was looking for vendor that sells but can't find any....

There is a free copy of MS Kermit that emulates Tek 4010/4014 and Sixel.  They are available on Columbia's FTP site.

Partially. They both use ReGIS and that part is very compatible, but there is some difference on how graphics and text mix, if I remember right.

The VT330 and 340 are also somewhat similar. There are some different behavior on some details in ReGIS for those, but most software works fine on them too.
