Robert,


I just tried this out (version 0.4) and I like it!!  Thanks for the 
great work.

Couple of things I noticed, (sorry if you are aware of them),

When logged on via miniterm the 'w' command doesn't show the ethercons 
user.  'Who' does.

The output from top is a bit jumbled.

I would definitely like to see this functionality added to the base 
system, once it is ready.

Cheers,

Cameron

PS I tried logging into the same machine twice and the two miniterm's 
mirror each other!  Not sure if that is intended but it is fun :)
