Well,  yes,  except that I might be on from the console on /dev/tty3 ...
all I really care about is that I'm sitting physically in front of
computer,  so that /dev/tty{whatever} is actually connected to my monitor
and keyboard rather than being a serial line or an ethernet line...

                                                thanks though
