Re: [jed-users] VT100 compatible terminal emulator?

Yes.  In the mid-2000s I had a major issue with the terminal not differentiating between these:
left
ctrl-left
alt-left
shift-left
alt-ctrl-left
alt-shift-left
ctrl-shift-left
alt-ctrl-shift-left

Konsole does this just fine now, and I know a few other emulators do as well.
Back then, I had to edit this konsole keyterm file extensively.

With numlock on, the number pad 0 produces 0 in JED in Konsole.

Guake will probably work as well.  Gnome terminal should also with proper settings, as I used it under Windows WSL v1, and got the 8 above keys working independently.
