Has anyone done a terminal emulator for the graphon serial line
X server terminals?  Seems like this could be a better way than
SLIP to connect PC based servers to clients over serial lines.

Even better has anyone done a similar host resident server which
would then remap (as much as possible) the interface, a la termcap,
to serial connected terminals?

It seems as though the commercial potential of a PC communication
software package such as this cannot have been overlooked?  Who
is doing it?  Please send me literature.
