Using rtty

Rtty is a line-based remote shell interface (see rtty(1) for general
information). This file gives a short introduction to using rtty.

Because rtty is line-based, it is not feasible to use interactive
programs such as vi(1) on the remote server. For this reason, rtty
sets TERM to tty43 by default. Neither is it generally feasible to
take advantage of interactive features of the remote shell, such
as interactive command history.

Instead, one has to make due with the old line-based tools, which
are fortunately still included with modern UNIX systems. Here is
a brief overview:

 Editor: 	ed(1)
 Pager: 	cat(1), pr(1)
 History: 	fc (see sh(1))
