Terminal I/O has been set up for HP2621, originally.
Taking in account some restrictions, working with VT100 or TAB-compiler
terminal is possible.
Mind that for HP-terminal, c/c flag is set to "C".
Terminal input is logged on file TVBACK..
.br
The following characters have a special meaning:
.no fill
.ls
.s 1
_<ESC_>		when given twice, end input
_<DEL_>		delete a character
_^G		once: BELL, twice: exit TV

.els

Other control-characters, will be displayed as special characters
on HP-2621, for as well as input as output.
.s 1
During command-execution, pre-fetching of one character is done,
if this is _^G, execution will be terminated.

Restrictions in VT100-mode:
.ls
.le
Control characters will not be displayed, a checkerboard-block will
appear.
