You may obtain the C-language source code for the VTTEST program by ftp, compile it on your UNIX system (or adapt it to others), and run the tests yourself:
ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/vttest/
The VTTEST program does not test any features of the VT220 or above, nor of esoteric VT models like VT125, VT131, etc. A VT220/320 test suite similar to VTTEST would be most welcome, but none seems to exist.
The following sheet may be used to administer the test. There are 100 points, plus 10 possible extra-credit points, so the highest possible score would be 110. To minimize confusion and promote fairness, begin with your emulator set to:
VTTEST VT100/VT102 Compatibility Test Score Sheet Program and version: konsole______________________________ Date: _________ Score: ____________ + Extra credit: ___________ = Final score: ___________ Check box if test passed.
