Apparently the screen command can do this:

From terminal you can do

man screen

for more details. That is, if the ancient ZTerm ever stops working. Been a long time since I played with PPP to get USENet feeds via UUCP for my BBS.

Hi, all,

I know I'm a dinosaur, but I can't seem to part with my trusty old braille Lite 40. I have an application on the Mac called ZTerm that uses serial communication and allows me to transfer files to and from the Braille Lite with the help of a USB-to-serial adapter. I'm looking for a backup method, just in case this app is discontinued or anything else comes up. Is there a way to do this in Terminal? Are there other apps that are still being updated that would allow me to do this?

just to clarify, I do have a stand-alone Braille display that is compatible with the Mac, but doesn't have a book reader or other notetaker features. i also am looking hard at the Perkins MiniBraille, but can't buy it for the foreseeable future.

Thanks,
Teresa

Slow down; you'll get there faster.
