- Hey, how about being able to reset your PC (or whatever) without having
- to drop the connection? On at least one occasion, I've found a need to
- reboot my machine, but didn't want to have to log out and then back
- in--too much state. So I rebooted the machine, restarted the term
- program, and my session was just fine...
