cat > /dev/tty12
YMMV on that. The best was the early version of unix that had perms
on the ttys wide open.
cat long_ansi_graphic_file > /dev/luser-tty
echo "System going down now...exit!' > /dev/lamer-tty
Of course, my favorite exit inducer I pulled on some guys playing
xtrek (yes, it was still called that then) on machines *I* needed....
They obviously didn't know about xhost, so I gradually twisted their
mouse sensitivity up. Firing accuracy was the first to go, but they
didn't get the hint...thought it was just lag. I think they finally
bailed at 500/1 which affected basic navigation. Their opponents
didn't have navigation or firing problems somehow. :-) Although it
comes to mind that I had to twist the mouse back down so that they
could get to the logout menu. Heh. BOFH with non op status.
