	The protocol used for session management is not the same level of
protocol for ANSI sequences.  There is absolutely no way of affecting the
session manager from a specific session.  Also, the protocol used by DEC
is patented and cannot be given away.

	There is however a program called SSU that is sold by Digital
Equipment Corporation that will let you do multiple sessions on Ultrix.
