I'd recommend one of the Reflection Series of HP terminal emulators
from Walker Richer & Quinn.  They have an entire line of terminal
emulators.  They have DOS and Window's versions available.  You can
reach them at:

    1-800-872-2839

In fact, HP is dropping AdvanceLink and is now bundling WRQ's software
with some of their PC packages.

  See the information below.

  "please email" requests are considered bad Netiquette (because it
wastes the time of all-but-one of the respondents and leaves other users
in the dark). Because I am a nice guy, I am posting this response anyway.

  Note: /etc/newconfig/termcap is in the optional fileset PROG-AUX.

	These terminals are Hewlett Packard Compatibles. They came from
a Silicon Valley company that may not exist any more.
	I agree, neat features, but Caveat Emptor where you use them

Members of the Interex user group can retrieve user-contributed programs
from a library.  For membership information, telnet to "interex.org",
login as "online", and fill out the information request query.

The "ARF" program can perform emulation of a Hewlett Packard terminal on
an Apple IIc computer.  The Interex Catalog entry:

Number: 4255, Language: FORTRAN , PASCAL , A, OS: RTE

Abstract:
     This package contains a set of HP-FORTRAN procedures and a set of Apple II
Pascal and assembly procedures. The Apple micro is used as a terminal and can
receive or send text files (type > 2) from/to the HP-host through an
asynchronous line.

Additional Documentation....: all files are grouped
into file &ARF and have to be separated before use.
