Is there currently a way to use the Amiga as a multi-user system?  I am
speaking of a 1000 with a terminal hooked up to the serial port.  I was working
on something that used the serial port - mostly for testing and figured that
I could write something to handle this.  But, before I start, if something is
already available, it would take me less time.  I really want this feature so
that I can work while my wife types in her reports and papers.
"Newcli < SER: > SER:" doesn't seem to work.

Also, does someone have the public domain type source of TeX?  I know that
Amiga TeX is available for $$, but I want to get one in the public domain.
I am willing to do a significant part of the port if others are willing to
help.  C source would be best but Pascal would be acceptable.  I may just
have to buy it.  I want a demo first though.
