seeking activeX control/library fro vt100 terminal emulation
-
Hi all, Thanks for reading my post. I am writing the client end of a custom terminal emulator and I want to add vt100 terminal emulation support to the application. It's written in VC++ 6. I was hoping I could do this by finding an activeX control that would provide some kind of virtual terminal support on the client end. Typically, the client will talk to a linux/unix server via TCP/IP. The trouble is that the linux/unix server sends back a whole bunch of strange characters and I don't know how to deal with them. Of course I could strip out the bad characters and yes that would work - but I would have to do this for every unix command and each one would be different. Thank you for any help or advice you can offer. Michael
