This has been said several times but, I guess, it bears repeating.

You CANNOT assume that anyone fingering you will have a terminal
that is VT100 compatible. Users without such a terminal (or emulation)
will get a mess (at best) or a locked terminal (at worst).

So, please, don't include *.vt files in your .plan - apart from anything
else, it's bad manners.
