	lib-src/emacsclient -h

You'll hopefully have two fully working frames on separate terminals.
If you exit emacs, both terminals should be restored to their previous
states.

At the moment you can not close terminals without exiting Emacs --
this will soon be implemented.

X, Mac, Windows and DOS support is broken, probably doesn't even
compile -- this will be solved later.

Tested under GNU/Linux only.

** Change emacsclient/server.el to support the -h argument better,
   i.e. automatically close the socket when the frame is closed.

** Export delete_tty to the Lisp environment, for emacsclient.

** C-g should work on secondary terminals.

** Make parts of struct tty_output accessible from Lisp.  The device
   name and the type is sufficient.

** Implement support for starting an interactive Emacs session without
   an initial frame.  (The user would connect to it and open frames
   later, with emacsclient.)  Not necessarily a good idea.

   secondary tty support, but it does not seem to do anything useful.

** Move optimalization parameters (costs) from union output_data to
   a backend-neutral per-device structure.

** Do tty output through term_hooks, too.

** Fix X support.

** Allow simultaneous X and tty frames.

	lib-src/emacsclient -h

You'll hopefully have two fully working frames on separate terminals.
If you exit emacs, both terminals should be restored to their previous
states.  You can close the newly opened frame and return to the shell
without exiting Emacs with C-x 5 0, i.e., delete-frame.

** Restore tty screen after closing the terminal.

** 'TERM=dumb src/emacs' does not restore the terminal state.

** Find out why does Emacs abort when it wants to close its
   controlling tty.

** Find out the best way to support suspending Emacs with multiple
   ttys.

** Do tty output through term_hooks, like all other display backends.

** Fix X support.

** Allow simultaneous X and tty frames.
