What you want is anyterm [0]. I recently changed to a new office that has a super restrictive firewall. Incidentally, I am the maintainer of librote and will soon be packaging anyterm, as soon as the upstream developer confirms that the new version of anyterm works with the new version of librote. To use the latest anyterm, you need the latest version of librote (0.2.8), but only 0.2.6+20050511 is in Sid. You can get version 0.2.8 from my package repository on my website if you want to use the upstream anyterm until I can get a version of it into Sid. -Roberto [0] http://anyterm.org/ -- Roberto C.
