Interesting. I think it could possibly do with some feedback to the user,
though - 9term appears really quickly, but something like xrn takes quite
a while, and I'd hate to think what will happen when I'm running on one of
my heavily-loaded machines. Perhaps the window label could change temporarily
to "spawning", or something....

Well, I'm running it under SunOS 5.3 (so all bets are off, yeah, I know, still),
and as usual, 9term's giving funny stty behaviour. If I spawn a 9term with
args "-p9font fixed -unix" from Sun's menu, I get a reasonable pty. If I spawn
one with the same args from 9menu, I need to reset intr and erase to ^C and ^?,
respectively. I haven't looked into detail yet why this might be, but I was
wondering if anyone's got any ideas.
