A program to kill the [getty|uugetty] on a terminal line,
and bring up a "kermit" on that line.  If the kermit is
shut down garacefully, the [getty|uugetty] is restarted.
Attempts to gracefully interface with uucp and kermit
via the "standard" lockfiles (your mileage in this regard
may vary).  Works (has worked) with BSD 4.2 and SysVR3.
Your luck with having a uugetty behave rationally with
kermit and/or uucp is problematical.
To install: edit avatex.h and courier.h to reflect your
"tty" lines.  Then edit Makefile to reflect your system.
Then "make".  Then (you'll have to go root here) "make install".
You must be root to install this program, and it must run
suid root (lockfile stuff, etc.).  Examine the source carefully
if you are wary of suid root programs.
