I've checked the code again, and I noticed that in my
mail I typed tty0, but it's tty00... I don't know if
that makes any difference...
Anyway, judging from what I've seen in the code (I
didn't write it myself), /dev/tty00 is indeed a
connection to a device. I will try to find out more
about this, and if I find it really is a connection to
some device, can I change the code so it works on a
PC?
