+NOTES FROM THE MOD.SOURCES MODERATOR:
+I split the source up into the three separate pieces it now is.
+In doing this, I put lines like "int reading;" in a header file
+that both C modules include. If your Unix requires one of these
+to be "extern int reading;" then you will have some editing to do.
+Also note that this program uses FIONREAD, which must be implemented
+differently in SystemV, etc., and check out the setjmp() call...
+ /Rich $alz
+Oh, yeah: I also wrote the Makefile and manpage, such as they are.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This is a program to test the compatibility (or to demonstrate the
+non-compatibility) of so-called "VT100-compatible" terminals. In
+conformance of the good old hacker traditions, the only documentation
+of this program is the source code itself. To understand it, you also
+need a copy of the original VT100 manual from DEC.
+
+Comments and bug reports: Since this is a release (via USENET) to the
+whole world, a lot of people are going to have opinions and fresh
+ideas about it. (What -- bugs in MY program? Aww...) I can't deal
+with everyone sending me a hacked version, but if you have found a
+serious bug, or ported it to VMS, do tell me. I can't promise any new
+version release, though. From this version on (1.7b) VTTEST will have
+to live its own life without its father holding its hand.

+The original version of this program is written for the Sargasso C
+compiler for the DECsystem-10. Many thanks to all sales persons with
+quote VT100-compatible unquote terminals, who prompted me to write
+this program, and also to:
+
+-- Bo Kleve, LIDAC, Linkoping University, Sweden
+ for the portation to DECSYSTEM-20 with the Sargasso C compiler
+
+-- Johan Widen, TTDS, Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden
+ for the portation to various UNIX systems (incl. System III and Xenix)
+
+-- Russ Herman, AES Data Inc., Missisauga, Ont. Canada
+ for fixes and code for the VT102 test
+
+Thanx also to JMR "Gremlin" at KTH, and Goran Wallberg at QZ
+for suggestions, bug fixes, etc.
+
+This program does not have support for all the different variations
+of VT100, like VT125, VT131 nor the new VT200 series. Feel free to
+add that yourself. Happy Hacking!
