Send output to tty??



Hi.

I've been trying to come up with a way to display something
in the terminal window that shows a successful ppp connection
when using pon.  So far, I have put the following line in the
ip-up script:

echo $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 > /dev/ttyp0 (ttyp0 is the first xterm window)

and this works ok, but after displaying the data, the terminal
doesn't return to the prompt until I hit 'Enter'.  What I'm looking
for is a way to display the data and return the terminal to normal 
without the extra 'Enter' keystroke.

Any suggestions? (or a better way to do this?)

thanks,
