Eclipse Community ForumsConsole TERM Emulation Support
https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/262060/756621/#msg_756621
Is this because 'nano' and 'aptitude' aren't vt102 compatible or is it because the plugin doesn't support fully the vt102? If the latter is the case is there other encoding that would work better with the terminal?
I have tried numerous LANG and TERM settings including ANSI and various flavors of VT102 and the only usable emulation I could find was by running 'export LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1' and 'export TERM=ibmpc' (I had to setup locales and ncurses), unfortunately the emulation is only black and white.
Any suggestion as to the emulation to use? or how to make the plugin render vt102 properly ?

setenv TERM ansi
should do the trick since we do an ANSI emulation only (that's slightly less capable than vt100 or vt102). Also, you should use TM 3.3.1 since a couple improvements to Terminal emulation were made in 3.3.
Regarding encodings, the standalone terminal widget assumes ISO-8859-1 by default; bug 244405 is open for making that configurable. If you use the Terminal with RSE, though (using the "SSH ONly" connection type and an "SSH Terminals" subsystem), you can specify your desired encoding in the Connection Properties (right click on the host node).
Thanks

Sorry for the super late reply, I have tired your suggestion and as per the image below things are better but still unusable and badly broken with programs like aptitude and nano. Using version:

Still having an issue with the rendering being broken. To duplicate lunch terminal for a remote Linux machine and simply execute 'aptitude'.
