To be honest I've wondered about this for a while.

Here's my quandry...

I use Vmware for Ubuntu 14 LTS.

First I start a dumbarse terminal and do:

factotum&
plumber&
sam&9term&

This gives me something I can work with.

But when I run venti, then fossil - I get no fossilcons in $ns. Fossil
works fine but you can't really keep it together without the console.

Now I digress. But I don't really.

If I try and run another 9term (as you would) you get "out of ptys".
Clearly my fscons is a failed pty.

That is my experience.
