I have spent the weekend attempting to hook a VT320 into the serial port and
then use it as a "taskwindow" while someone else uses my Archimedes desktop.

I thought maybe that piping the I/O might work.

taskwindow { < serial: > serial: }

I got little closer.  I wrote a program to do this by piping the output of 
each command but many commands will not work with the redirection.  And
errors when the command is types incorrectly appeared on the Archimedes not the
remote terminal.

Considering that some terminals get ditched working more are becoming available
and I thought this would be a healthy addition.

I get the feeling that this redirection can be achieved by running a prog
multi-tasking on the Arch but it just seemed more difficult that I first
envisaged.

Has anyone else tried this sort of thing.
