Dumb Terminal
  • Terminal (or computer using dumb terminal software) which allows communications with other computers, but does not enhance the data exchanged, or provide additional features such as upload/download. (BBD;)
  • n. A terminal that is one step above a glass tty, having a minimally addressable cursor but no on-screen editing or other features normally supported by a smart terminal. Once upon a time, when glass ttys were common and addressable cursors were something special, what is now called a dumb terminal could pass for a smart terminal.
