Separate that from emulators of "system console" terminals. Separate out various independent statements into paragraphs. |

==Examples of terminals emulated==
Many terminal emulators have been developed for physical hardware terminals such as [[VT52]], [[VT100]], [[VT220]], [[VT320]], [[IBM 3270|IBM 3270/8/9/E]], [[IBM 5250]], [[IBM 3179G]], [[Data General]] D211, [[Hewlett-Packard]] HP700/92, Sperry/Unisys 2000-series [[Uniscope|UTS60]], Burroughs/Unisys A-series T27/TD830/ET1100, [[Applied Digital Data Systems|ADDS]] ViewPoint, AT386, [[Siemens Nixdorf]] (SNI) 97801, [[Televideo]] 925, and [[Wyse]] 50/60.
Some terminal emulators, such as [[xterm]], implement additional features not present in the emulated terminal.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://invisible-island.net/xterm/xterm.faq.html#what_vt220 |title=XTerm - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) |at=Why a VT220? |author=Thomas E. Dickey}}</ref> Additionally, programs have been developed to emulate Finally, some emulators simply refer to a set of standards, such as the standards for [[ANSI escape code]]s. Such programs are available on many platforms, including [[DOS]], [[Unix-like]] systems including [[Linux]] and [[macOS]], [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], and embedded operating systems found in cellphones and industrial hardware. == Implementation details ==
