VXT 2000+/VXT 2000 Windowing Terminal

This document is a user guide for the VXT 2000+/VXT 2000 windowing terminal, focusing on VXT Version 2.1 software. It explains how to utilize the terminal's open windowing environment to create and manage X window and traditional terminal sessions across diverse operating systems.

The guide covers two primary software configurations:

1. VXT Software: This full-featured version includes a Terminal Manager for session control (supporting TCP/IP, LAT, and DECnet), VXT DECterm for VT300 series emulation, and VXT 3270 for IBM SNA systems. It offers extensive customization options for keyboard, display, security, communication settings (including network protocols and font paths), and startup configurations. Settings can be saved locally or on an InfoServer system.
2. VXT EX Software (Essential X Server): This minimal, clientless version is designed for systems with limited memory, relying on the host system to provide all window and session management. It primarily facilitates X sessions to host systems via TCP/IP or LAT transports.

Key topics detailed include: creating, autostarting, pausing, and ending sessions; customizing keyboard, display language, pointer/mouse, print screen, security, screen background, window colors, terminal manager, and video alignment settings; configuring various communication protocols (serial/parallel ports, LAT, TCP/IP, NFS, DECnet); customizing fonts and startup behaviors; checking terminal status, memory, and network usage; using VXT DECterm and VXT 3270 windows for copying, pasting, and printing; and comprehensive instructions for ANSI, PC, and Sun style keyboards, including typing additional characters. Troubleshooting information and technical specifications are also provided.
