Here is a part of the original README:
WHAT IS XBTX?
XBtx is an X11 implementation of the CEPT videotext protocol terminal. It has
been extensively tested against the German Telekom's BTX version of the CEPT
videotext service.
WHAT ARE XBTXs CAPABILITIES?
XBtx supports
o color and black & white displays
o multiple server, multiple clients (though at any given time only one
client can be served by a server)
o built-in script language
o accounting (connect time and user)
o session logging & off-line playback
o saving CEPT pages as ASCII or PBM (even if in black & white mode with
the all the original color information)
o background mode (i.e. no X11 display is opened) for automated retrieval
o Perl interface
o modem configuration file
