I'm coming in late on this thre3ad and I confess I have not read all the messages, but what about using screen? With it, you can get many screens under the same terminal and switch between them and not only that, you can leave your various screens open, detach them, and reattach them if you remote in via ssh from elsewhere. To me this seems like a good solution. Again, I have not read the entire thread, but this is what I do, so this is what I offer. -- Raul A.
