Change subject: Add expect script: 'vty' for easy access to all vtys
......................................................................


Patch Set 1:

> The more "canonical" way for the port numbers part is of course to
 > add them to /etc/services

Right. This is meant to be non system-intrusive.

 >
 > Another approach would be to write a NSS module (see
 > http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Name-Service-Switch.html#Name-Service-Switch)

Sounds great. I don't think I am going to turn this patch into that though. 
This (at least for my part) is going to remain a scripting based helper 
solution for now. My idea is this is a highly customisable script and you 
change it yourself to your [current] needs in terms of desired logging messages 
from each program.

What I do intend to do is create "sets" using tmux or suchlike, so one command
./vty data for example
would give you a four way split, say ggsn, sgsn, bts, pcu.

and tab completion + persistent readline/history capability, as was discussed 
some other place/time IIRC. :)
