Charon is an MPE/iX emulator that runs as a VMWare guest on various
flavours of Linux.  Both elements are relatively expensive and
together cost several orders of magnitude greater than an extra HP-700
series terminal.  In any case neither would provide block-mode access
to an existing hP3000 unit.

There is/was an open source HP block-mode video terminal emulator
named, I believe, HPXTerm.  I built it once under CentOS-6.?  As of
yet I have not tried building anything under FreeBSD other than from
the ports collection.  I suppose I can go down that route if there is
nothing else.
