Perl-Term-VT102 0.82 - Term::VT102 - a class to emulate a DEC VT102 terminal.

The VT102 class provides emulation of most of the functions of a DEC VT102 terminal. Once initialised, data passed to a VT102 object is processed and the in-memory screen modified accordingly. This screen can be interrogated by the external program in a variety of ways.

This allows your program to interface with full-screen console programs by running them in a subprocess and passing their output to a VT102 class. You can then see what the application has written on the screen by querying the class appropriately.
