Bzzt... Term doesn't require X, although it does *allow* you to make
X connections if you have X. It works much better than UW (I've tried
UW, too...) and is small and fast. Try it, you'll like it... If all
you want is a one-user connection, it has all the features of slip
that you need, generally.
