inferior_tty has been introduced with pyclewn 1.6. A refactoring
change made in pyclewn 1.8 disconnected inferior_tty from the main
select loop (unnoticed as there is no test for this feature in the
test suite).  That explains the problem. I will fix it rapidly and
make a new release since it is a major annoyance. Thanks for reporting
this.

Yes you are right. The implementation of this command is
straightforward (wondering why I did not do it this way in the first
place). Xterm may not be available, or the user may prefer
using another terminal so this should be defined with another option
(default xterm). I will implement it, but probably not before
september. Thanks for the suggestion.
