- does that mean this new AES reads from its own terminal device now,
- not the one it was started on? then it also would no longer work with
- virtual consoles... (btw select etc. all works on vts, and blocking
- reads don't poll. maybe make AES' console device configurable?)
-
- oh and if it still does work with vts just forget this message.
-
- cheers
- Juergen (who actually uses GEM more than before now that he
- has vts... because the fast shells are just 2 keypresses away :-)
