dumb terminal 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.
