Thank you for replying... sure I'm putting one question that involves
just _the_basics_ of multi-user environments... I stopped making software
for Windog an year ago, I really had enough of Microsoft and Borland, I
bring lot of intensive C/C++ days and nights with me, I'm learning quite a
lot on Linux which I had been using for about three years before deciding
that IT IS greener grass, great tools, great minds searching QUALITY,
greener grass indeed... I still lack the basics but now I need them, as I
plan to build an application based on PostgreSQL running on a Debain
GNU/Linux box with text dumb terminals.
So I add one more question: from a software point of view, how would
such a terminal+printer couple (if possible) get managed? Just something
to say to the OS?
