This is a plugin for the OshonSoft Z80 Simulator IDE

It emulates a VT100 terminal, which is connected to the Z80 via a serial IO controller that uses port 40h for the status register, and port 41h for the data register.

I put this together while working on a little Z80 monitor which (once there's enough room in the house to let me unpack things) I plan to burn into some EPROMs and use to revive some old z80 based luggable PCs (namely, an Osborne 1 and a  Bondwell 14)

Here's a screenshot of the rom monitor running in the simulator:
