Has anybody ever heard of or worked with a UN*X system that has
a "smart" screen handler in an I/O processor?  The system that I'm
currently running, an ARIX 1100, has simple keyboard input and some
display output delegated to the slave processors.  I'm curious if
anybody has implemented something like curses on the slave processor
level.
