Terminal Emulator - Local Echo

Local Echo

Terminal emulators may implement a local echo function, which may be erroneously named "half-duplex" (see Duplex (telecommunications) for information on half-duplex), or still slightly incorrectly "echoplex" (which is formally an error detection mechanism rather than an input display option).

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or echo:

    The local is a shabby thing. There’s nothing worse than bringing us back down to our own little corner, our own territory, the radiant promiscuity of the face to face. A culture which has taken the risk of the universal, must perish by the universal.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    It is the folly of too many to mistake the echo of a London coffee-house for the voice of the kingdom.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
