[Tfug] OSX

[Chuck Boyer]

I use iTerm for my console app. It is pretty much just like xterm. Works for
everything, you can even tip with it. zTerm is better for a serial console
though. Just remember to get a USB to serial adapter that works with OSX

--------------------------------- 

I think in this sense he means Terminal.app - the "xterm for OS X" so to
speak. 

I seem to remember that if you disable automatic login (or just log out I
assume... I had a G4 a whiel ago) and log in with just the username
"console" you will be dropped to Darwin and can login with your usual OS X
username. That gets you just the "console" as described .
