The Author and
the APL terminal emulator
In the spring of 1987, Mr. Tom Landers, then a fourth year student
at Case Western Reserve University, developed this terminal emulator
as a part of the requirements for his senior project. His work
started with a terminal program done by J. Bammi and P. Mateti, that
later became a part of Gulam.
The terminal characteristics seem to be similar to those of a VT52.
Tom designed an APL font that has only "single strike" characters;
composite characters are formed on the screen by merging images.
You may be able to find a font editor that will work with this font.
The supervisor was Prof. F.T. Way, III of the Department of
Computer Engineering and Science.
