I think the font is pretty nice as it is. And I'll try this next time I'll get on a Linux machine.

If you try fxterm with Casio serial cable, you may find, that stream PC->fxterm goes OK, but fxterm->PC doesn't. The problem is in DTR signal on COM port, which must be set ON. The cable (probably) uses it to get power.I used following (and very dirty workaround):Linux is running in vmware (which run on windows), it has serial port, which is configured as named pipe (\\.\pipe\seriak), vmware end is server,other end is an application.On windows run proxy - attached application, which forwards data between pipe and real COM1 port. The proxy ensures, that DTR signal is ON, so it works.This is very dirty solution, proxy is very dirty software, but at least it works for testing:-)I hope there is a way to configure Linux to set DTR signal ON, I did a very quick research, but found nothing:-(Martin

In that case, maybe something akin to Telnet 83, with a 3x4 font and a horizontally and vertically scrollable screen (much like when your screen is zoomed in).
How do you connect to Linux?
can you recompile the app with this icon?
As a self-proclaimed VT100 expert, I have to say this is impressive! Yours is nicer than my VT100 emulator too: mine is only monochrome (though I recently added grayscale glyphs) and only 60 columns by 20 rows. Each character is 4x6 pixels (the screen 240x128). Mine doesn't even support setting top and bottom margins for the scrolling region, or double-width and double-height lines! I found it to be sufficient for some full-screen applications like "links", though.How did you implement your emulator? Did you write a state machine? I used the pages at http://vt100.net/emu/dec_ansi_parser (which contains a very useful state diagram) and http://vt100.net/docs/vt100-ug/ to write my emulator. I haven't tried connecting mine to a Linux system yet, but I plan to do that before too long (if I can figure out how to make TiEmu act like a virtual serial port).
