Carl: If Digital is still making VT100's they must still print manuals for them. I'll see what I can find. My Rainbow Owner's Manual is "part no." EK-R100E-OM-002, and I learned what I knew before your note from Appendix H, "Rainbow Control Functions (Escape Sequences)." It has some curious omissions, such as referring to G0 and G1 character sets without telling what they are or how to use them. It does list quite a few escape sequences, but though it claims I should really only use the ANSI sequences, it doesn't distinguish clearly between ANSI and VT52 sequences, and some of the pages seem to be in the wrong order.
