This will work just fine with the remote console support currently available in 
the current simh code base at github.

The Remote Console Facility allows a TELNET Connection to a user designated 
port so that some out of band commands can be entered to manipulate and/or 
adjust a running simulator. The commands which enable and control this 
capability are SET REMOTE TELNET=port, SET REMOTE CONNECTIONS=n, SET REMOTE 
TIMEOUT=seconds, and SHOW REMOTE.

The remote console facility has two modes of operation: 1) single command mode. 
and 2) multiple command mode.
In single command mode you enter one command at a time and aren't concerned 
about what the simulated system is doing while you enter that command. The 
command is executed once you've hit return. In multiple command mode you 
initiate your activities by entering the WRU character (usually ^E). This will 
suspend the current simulator execution. You then enter commands as needed and 
when you are done you enter a CONTINUE command. While entering Multiple Command 
commands, if you fail to enter a complete command before the timeout (specified 
by "SET REMOTE TIMEOUT=seconds"), a CONTINUE command is automatically processed 
and simulation proceeds.

A subset of normal simh commands are available for use in remote console 
sessions. The Single Command Mode commands are: ATTACH, DETACH, PWD, SHOW, DIR, 
LS, ECHO, HELP The Multiple Command Mode commands are: EXAMINE, IEXAMINE, 
DEPOSIT, EVALUATE, ATTACH, DETACH, ASSIGN, DEASSIGN, STEP, CONTINUE, PWD, SAVE, 
SET, SHOW, DIR, LS, ECHO, HELP
