Absolutely right. Speaking as an old DEC head, a VT102 is 100%
compatible with a VT100. It's even mostly compatible with a VT220.
With the exception of the old "PF" keys and kicking the VT100 keyboard
into "application mode" (e.g. for KED or KEX), a VT100 is compatible
with an ANSI terminal (same cursor-control sequences, highlighting,
etc.). The old VT440 is compatible with ANSI color sequences, too.
