My dos communications program, Ripterm, does not have vt100 terminal
emulation. It only has vt 102. Are these two interchangeable? Is this
likely to cause any problems wwith a dial up account using pine on the 
host computer?

vt102 is a superset of vt100, with additional character insertion codes,
maybe a couple of other enhancements.  Selecting vt100 should always work
with a vt102 emulator, though not vice-versa.
