bravenmd has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Dear Esteemed Perl Gurus and Monks:

Can anyone suggest a VT100 terminal emulator that runs well in Red Hat or Fedora and contains a good sized perl function library?

Basically, I would like to perform some data acquisition, validation, and formatting of data as it is produced to the screen in real time. The current system is built in perl and we would prefer to not have to write a module in java or C++ to handle the new functionality.

Thanks in advance for all your help.

    I haven't worked with VT100 emulation for years. But I would start by searching for Curses. Then I would expand my search my looking for Curses in all contexts on search.cpan.org.
