Description-en: multiuser "tip"/"cu" replacement with logging
This is Paul Vixie's rtty serial console tool. It allows runs a server
per port which then support multiple connections at time from
"tip"/"cu"-like clients. It also supports logging of output from the
port, even when no client is connected. This can be invaluable for post
mortem diagnosis of crashes of serial consoled machines.
