Hi all,
I recently completed writing a DMD 5620 Terminal Emulator. This was the commercial version of the "Blit" or "jerq" terminal developed at AT&T Bell Labs for use with UNIX systems. I hope it's not too off-topic for this forum!
Of course, to really get the best functionality out of it you're going to need a UNIX system that speaks the Blit packet protocol. I know the 3B2 had extensive support for the DMD in System V Release 3, so that's what I've been using to test it with, running on the 3B2/400 Emulator.
I put a demo of the DMD 5620 emulator up on YouTube:
It's available for MacOS X and Linux right now, and a Windows version is coming soon.
