i was surprised that drawterm provides kprint and it works. 

cpu% cat /mnt/term/dev/kprint
dir: bad path c:/Documents and Settings/fst/My Documents/My Music/Fats€Domino
dir: bad path c:/Documents and Settings/fst/My Documents/My Music/Fiona€Apple
dir: bad path c:/Documents and Settings/fst/My Documents/My Music/John€Lee€Hooker
dir: bad path c:/Documents and Settings/fst/My Documents/My Music/Muddy€Waters

but i'm not sure why i can't interrupt cat.  deleting the
window keeps the device busy. is this expected?

probably the drawterm exportfs does not
implement flush.  normally it is implemented
with postnote, but there is no postnote
in drawterm.
