Timothy, for a console on localhost do you use ssh exclusively?  Never 
xterm or similar?  You authenticate every connection to localhost?

I don't know the implementation of xterm and etc.   Is an xterm 
connection to localhost direct or under TLS?  Naively, I wouldn't 
expect TLS to be necessary for localhost.  When a miscreant has access 
to a machine, TLS on a local console connection probably won't help.

Used it in A2.  

ETHO would require significant updating.  (Project for my next life.)
Details available via my previous message.

Thx,                        ... P.
