Has anyone been able to build this for Mac OS X? The various little
testing tools run under Terminal.app quite nicely. However, after I
*finally* managed to build mterm, they just generate escape
sequences. It sounds most interesting though, I think I'm going to
have to find time to try this out on another Unix box.
