  It's an interesting idea, should work.

  When I hook to linux I set a termcap / getty. Either wired or a wimodem.

  And HTERM to do flow control and let me see some UTF-8 output including line 
drawing characters.

  But if you want to use the host's display only inputattach seems like a 
better way.

  WP-2 should work too, it has a terminal program.

    This is probably a dumb question, maybe even one that was asked/answered

    would it be possible to use a model 100/102/200 as a keyboard for a 
    Linux workstation via "inputattach"?

    As I understand it, inputattach connects a serial device to the input 
    stream of a Linux system.

    Rather than modifying the keyboard to an M100/102/200, this would leave 
    the M100/102/200 intact, and one could still telnet onto the Linux box 
    from the M100/102/200 sometimes.

    I wonder if this could be done with a WP-2, as well?
