I think you're talking about a VT-240 or VT-241, these are the only two
listed with Tek 4014 emulation.

I found info in the "Terminals & Printers Handbook 1983-1984", but it's
very limited info. Obviously the VT-102 Users Guide would be the best
source of info.

>have got and if it would be useable with VMS (the paging feature)?

Standard
--------
Advanced Video Features:
        132 chars/line-by-24 lines
        blink, bold characters
Printer Port
Half-Duplex Communications
Local Echo


It also sounds like it supports some limited line editing features.

According to the manual the Terminal itself should work with PDP-8s,
MicroPDP-11s, PDP-11s, VAXes, DECSYSTEM-10s and DECSYSTEM-20s. Don't quite
know why it lists both MicroPDP-11s and PDP-11s.
