- Is it possible to launch NeXTStep applications from a getty
- (dial up) shell? Like supply a flag to say "don't display the windows for
- this app" (a bit like redirecting output to /dev/null). You may say what's
- the point?, since the app couldn't receive any mouse/keyboard events. True.
- But it _could_ receive messages for it's API.
