- I would like to be able to tell whether any particular window (xwsh,
- xterm, etc) is receiving the console output. Previously the first wsh
- started on the main screen would answer /dev/console to tty. Now I
- get told which ttyq it is. Is there some way to tell whether a
- particular xwsh (or xterm) window is recieving the console output?
-
- Thanks to all,
