If you're ever bored and looking for something to do....  :-D

It's not a big deal.  I can have "SET HOST/LAST <SERVICE> as the stuff 
string, which has essentially the same effect. 

I probably need to change the BOSS escape character, though, since
CTRL-\ is the escape sequence for LAT connections.  OK, I could use
TCPIP, but a common reason to log in on another node is to start or stop
some TCPIP stuff. I could use DECnet, but I don't have that running.  
(Another thing I haven't needed; it's on my list of things to do.)
