[GreenKeys] Interface ASR33 to Linux serial port

[Eric Moore]

I find socat invaluable. It lets me connect processes (bash, telnet,
ascii art, etc..) and teletypes cleanly and with predictable results,
with a printout of exactly what is being exchanged that lets me
troubleshoot any issues.

Using gettys is neat, but annoying to troubleshoot for quick demos.

Has anyone played with heavy metal, the windows app, under wine? I
seem to remember I got it working and then got distracted before
attaching it to the tty.
