Remarks

The Terminal Emulation control provides a comprehensive interface for emulating an ANSI or DEC-VT220 character terminal, with full support for all standard escape and control sequences, color mapping and other advanced features. The control provides both a high level interface for parsing escape sequences and updating a display, as well as lower level primitives for directly managing the virtual display, such as controlling the individual display cells, moving the cursor position and specifying display attributes.

This control can be used in conjunction with the Remote Command or Telnet Protocol control to provide terminal emulation services for an application, or it can be used independently. For example, this control could also be used to provide emulation services for a program that provides serial modem connections to a server.
