	Computer terminal Summary
		In the context of an individual computer, a terminal is a device that enables the user to communicate with the computer.
		A computer terminal is an electronic or electromechanical hardware device that is used for entering data into, and displaying data from, a computer or a computing system.
		Notable non-VT100 computer terminal types include the IBM 3270, various Wyse models, and the Tektronix 4014, but during the late 1970's there were dozens of manufacturers of terminals, many of which had incompatible command sequences.

		Since the flow rate of bytes to the terminal is usually much greater than the flow in the reverse direction from the keyboard to the host computer, it's the terminal that is most likely to suffer overrunning.
		With terminals, the most common case of "stop sending" is where the terminal can't keep up with the characters being sent to it and it issues a "stop" to the PC.
		This request was intended to be sent from a terminal (or computer) to a modem which, if it decided to grant the request, would send back an asserted CTS from its CTS pin to the CTS pin of the computer: You are Cleared To Send to me.

	What's a Terminal?
		Video terminals, also known as CRTs (Cathode Ray Tubes), appeared on the scene in the mid-1960s and dominated the human-computer interface from the early 1970s (when they began to displace hardcopy terminals) until the mid-1980s, when PCs began to take over.
		The great advantage of video terminals over their predecessors (besides the obvious ones of not using paper, ribbons, and ink and making less noise) is the ability to position the cursor on the screen (thus allowing full-screen editing, forms-filling data entry, games, etc), to "edit" the screen (e.g.

		The tendency for repeat patronage of certain terminals may not only be explained by the natural human drive to anthropomorphize computer terminals but also by our desire for cognitive and/or behavioral consistency.
		It also forebodes increasing acceptance of computers in a variety of personal roles hitherto performed exclusively by humans, and offers two theoretical mechanisms to explain why certain individuals might be more comfortable than others with computers performing certain roles in society.

	What is terminal emulation? - a definition from Whatis.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		- Terminal emulation is the ability to make one computer terminal, typically a PC, appear to look like another, usually older type of terminal so that a user can access programs originally written to communicate with the other terminal type.
		Terminal emulation is often used to give PC users the ability to log on and get direct access to legacy programs in a mainframe operating system.
		Terminal emulation requires installing a special program in the PC or on a local area network (LAN) server to which it is connected.

		In the late 1960s, they produced the Datapoint 2200 (consisting of a display, keyboard, and modem and intended for data entry on mainframe computers) that emulated different types of dumb terminals in software.
		Initially it had planned to use a microprocessor but manufacturing difficulties meant that it was finally produced from discrete components.
