Questions on CLI and xwindow
Hi,
I was not sure about the terminology of the thing that I am about to explain, so it was very difficult to find relevant search results.
I want to use my computer using the ctrl+alt+f1 CLI without using a graphical system. However, at the same time, I would also like to do basic tasks like reading a PDF or open a browser. Switching back to a GUI for these tasks are quite distracting. Is there a way that I can launch windows under the CLI interface and somehow overlay them over the CLI?
Any pointers would be much appreciated.

net::cli::interact::transport::serial
Net::CLI::Interact::Transport::Serial(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::CLI::Interact::Transport::Serial(3pm)
NAME
Net::CLI::Interact::Transport::Serial - Serial-line based CLI connection
VERSION
version 1.121640
DECRIPTION
This module provides a wrapped instance of a Serial-line client for use by Net::CLI::Interact.
INTERFACE
app
On Windows platforms you must download the "plink.exe" program, and pass its location to the library in this parameter. On other platforms,
this defaults to "cu", which again you must download and install.
runtime_options
Based on the "connect_options" hash provided to Net::CLI::Interact on construction, selects and formats parameters to provide to "app" on
the command line. Supported attributes:
FIXME: on Windows platforms, only the device attribute is supported.
device (required)
Name of the device providing access to the Serial-line (e.g. "/dev/ttyUSB0" or "COM5".
parity
You have a choice of "even", "odd" or "none" for the parity used in serial communication. The default is "none".
nostop
You can control whether to use "XON/XOFF" handling for the serial communication. The default is to disable this, so to enable it pass
any True value.
speed
You can set the speed (or baud rate) of the serial line by passing a value to this named parameter. The default is 9600.
reap
Only used on Unix platforms, this installs a signal handler which attempts to reap the "ssh" child process. Pass a true value to enable
this feature only if you notice zombie processes are being left behind after use.
COMPOSITION
See the following for further interface details:
