Hmmm - nobody mentioned ttysim recently when I was asking about a program
to turn a laptop into a portable TTY.  I've been using rtty12g for the
purpose.  Haven't tried ttysim yet, probably no better or worse.

If I only knew how to tell Windows that I want 5-bit characters one of
these would run under Windows instead of DOS.
