Ooops, the term server is in the way as well. I just think that it would be nice to have a clean way to get from the tty to the raw display, preferably without too much knowledge about the layout of the directories provided by the console server. > One way to get that info is to look up your ttyname node and look at > the translator settings. That sounds a little too messy for my taste, but I don't see any obvious cleaner way to it. Having all these little servers stacked on each other makes me think of STREAMS (with which I don't have much experience). And the problem is, given a port to one end of such a stack, you want to send an rpc to some server further down, and get the result back. Performing a dir-lookup on the console, given only a term conencted to the console, is one example.
