I think that in the case I described to Jerome, there is a difference
between a VT52 and a later terminal in VT52 mode. The fact that the
surmised difference is insignificant hasn't stopped me from being
curious about it!

The most diligent of terminal emulator authors will fall into large
holes left by the external specifications, so I'm doing some work to be
as precise as I imagine the Video SRM is. Is that the document
containing chunks of Pascal that make a reference emulator?
