Which is why I'd suggested the pseudo-terminal. The application can
speak to a "hard-wired FTAn:" device and the PeeCee terminal emulator
can connect, via TELNET some port, to the reader side. However, the
lack of a $QIO interface -- that the OP seems hell bent on issuing --
will preclude this from being part of a solution. The pseudo-terminal
works just fine for DECterms but this retentive luddite doesn't think
it's VMSish enough for him.
