This bring up another issue. This terminal obviously has special needs. Is
there a way in /etc/profile (or somewhere else) to set up the proper
conditions based on the terminal rather than the user? That is, can I
determine at login time what tty is being used and set the proper
conditions reguardless of the user logging in?
