The specification has been changed so that what you want should start up as follows;
$ minicom -l [DEVICE]
From man minicom: -l, --ansi Literal translation of characters with the high bit set. With this flag on, minicom will try to translate the IBM line characters to ASCII. Many PC-unix clones will display character cor- rectly without translation (Linux in a special mode, Coherent and SCO). I have tried -l, -l ansi, -l --ansi, --ansi and none of them work. I always get VT102. The only way to get ansi is to go into the menu for terminal settings, to select ansi. What would possess whoever created minicom to not make it a setting that could be set? I guess he worked for DEC and assumed everyone worked on DEC gear. Well, I used to do a lot more on Data General than DEC.
