      I use PuTTY v53.b from W2k to connect using SSH2 to a VMS7.3-2 machine
    and then
      DECnet to a VMS7.3-1 machine where I run emacs 19.22

      When I try to run emacs I get

      NORNS> emacs -nw FOO.TXT
      [Spawning a new Kept EMACS]
      emacs: Terminal type vt102-80 is not defined.
      If that is not the actual type of terminal you have,
      use the Bourne shell command `TERM=... export TERM' (C-shell:
      `setenv TERM ...') to specify the correct type. It may be necessary
      to do `unset TERMCAP' (C-shell: `unsetenv TERMCAP') as well.
      [Attached to DCL in directory $7$DKA0:[TOM]]

      Now in the TERM dir there is

      VT100.ELC;1 VT102.EL;1 VT125.EL;1 VT200.EL;1
      VT200.ELC;1 VT201.EL;1 VT220.EL;1 VT240.EL;1

      NORNS> type VT102.EL
      (load "term/vt100" nil t)

      Is the problem that the above lisp file is not byte compiled?
      Who is claiming that it is VT102-80, PuTTY?

      SHO TERM/FULL doesn't supply that form of designation.

      I also tried just copying VT102.EL to VT102-80.EL under the obvious theory
      to no avail.
