Almost any Windows based terminal emulator can now be used for accessing CEFMS. You will no longer be required to use a specific emulator, such as VistaCom for DOS. However, the terminal emulator that you use to access CEFMS must have a VT220 emulation and keyboard re-mapping capability. You will have to re-map the VT220 emulator keys to send the correct ASCII sequence for CEFMS. There are several emulators that already do this.
