Description Ken Brush 2002-10-31 21:30:39 UTC

I created an ebuild for pty-redir. A tool used to give programs a pty.

This is commonly used for ppp tunneling via ssh.

I don't really know where it should go, maybe in app-text?

Version 0.1 of pty-redir will not work with the 2.4 series of kernels.  I did find a 0.2 version that will work though with 2.4 and have mostly finished a ebuild for for version 0.2.  I'm thinking that this ebuild should be dropped into app-misc since there really is no clear location for it in my opinion.

This package has many sins:
  - don't have a proper home page
  - no help whatsoever
  - don't see its utility
  - this bug has a venerable age!
