- Unix domain sockets

Features:
- Mapping symbolic names to console devices
- Logging (and optionally timestamping) console output to file
- Connecting to a console in monitor (R/O) or interactive (R/W) mode
- Connecting to multiple consoles for broadcasting (W/O) client output
- Sharing a console session amongst multiple simultaneous clients
- Allowing clients to share or steal console "write" privileges
- Executing Expect scripts across multiple consoles in parallel
