I recently got my hands on a wyse50 without a working keybord. So
I thought it'd be interesting to hook it up to a serial line and
run systat or something cool on it.  Only when ever I do 
'systat >/dev/tty00' it outputs one screen and then stops (tty output)
which is a bit annoying.  I've tried just about everything I can
think of (like 'stty -f /dev... -tostop' which should make
it not stop when backgrounded, yes???) but nothing is helping.

Any idea?

NetBSD 1.1, i386 on a NEC laptop. 4MB
