The problem you are having may be due to the fact that the
"insert character" command that MacTerminal clains to emulate
is one that I don't find anywhwere in my VT102 manual... the
command they interpret is the esc-...-@ command which they
claim inserts n spaces. My VT102 manual does not document such
a command, but does documnet various ways to go into an insert
mode (as opposed to overwrite mode). Perhaps VT102's have such
a command, but I suspect it is not there but does exist in
other ANSI terminals.
