The terminal emualtion is done through a program - /usr/bin/async_main.  You
can execute this program from the shell.  Several of the windowing scripts are
in /usr/bin/*.sh -- for example, /usr/bin/Phones.sh which handles the phone
lines.  As I say, these are all shell scripts, so you can run them from the
shell, or make your own to suit your needs.  There are still other shell
scripts in /usr/lib/ua.  Have fun.
