[Swift-devel] Shell through coasters

[Michael Wilde]

Mihael, a heads-up that we're trying to get this working.

David is investigating, but please provide any advice that may help get this working and available for general use.

Thanks,

- Mike

It doesn't work. But if it did work, this is how you would do it. 

1. Start swift with -tui 
2. F4 to go to list of jobs. 
3. Press enter on an active job 
4. A window pops up with job properties. Hit tab and select terminal. Then you'll see something like this: 

/000000$ ls 
java.lang.NullPointerException 
/000000$ pwd 
java.lang.NullPointerException 

I'll take a look at what's causing that - just wanted to show how it's supposed to work, in theory.
