I've heard a lot about these Blits, but I've never actually seen one... Is
a Blit just a poor man's workstation?  Does it communicate with the host
via an RS232 connection or something, or is there a higher-speed channel
available (ethernet maybe)?  How intelligent is it (does it handle creating
windows with escape sequences, or does the driver program on the host machine
do this)?
