[Coco] [Color Computer] Re: Terminal Program

[Little John]

I received some offlist requests to transfer Gene's VT220.AR
to a disk image. I have done so and extracted it
as well.
It is a 360K ".os9" disk image:
http://gimechip.com/files/vt220.zip
I will leave it up for a few days before removing it.
