- You could do one of four things..
-
- 1) Get TERM.. It does multi/io on a serial link really really well!
- 2) get SCREEN.. Also does multi console type of stuff well..
- 3) write a Line Switcher in the modem server like some terminal
- servers do..
- 4) Get the user (If there under MAC/DOS) to use UW(PC) which does
- multi consoles from a unix box to a MAC or a PC..
