Java terminal emulator

Question

Does anyone knows of a library or a class that emulates the vt100 terminal (doesn't matter if graphical or not). What I want basically is a class that implements the logic of a vt100 terminal (like when receiving a "delete" code will call a delete function, or if GUI based that will delete one char).

Telnetd seems to be a complete and pretty well documented solution:

http://telnetd.sourceforge.net/

You can also try:

http://www.jcraft.com/jcterm/

It behaves like a VT100 and uses a SSH2 connection. But the website indicates the VT100 emulation is incomplete.

Telnetd is a server. It doesn't do terminal emulation. Telnet clients do that. – user207421 Apr 23 '15 at 03:13

@EJP: You're wrong.This is not a standalone application, but a library, and it contains everything needed to create both a server and a client. – Alexis Dufrenoy Apr 23 '15 at 14:26

Have a look at the JediTerm project: https://github.com/JetBrains/jediterm

It has both graphical implementation as well as API to override. Graphical version works for remote SSH connections(using JSch) and local pty(using Pty4J).

It is a mature project used for the embedded terminal in JetBrains products.
