The console server outputs a nifty summary of all the messages from all
the slaved devices.  This would be perfect input for LogSurfer, or a
pager filter.

We need to grep out some crufty spew from the stream before we send it
on to the pager filter.  But grep buffers _way_ too much: by the time
grep flushes its output the clock on the wall has shown (maybe) days.

So we slice off conserver output in time based slices and filter each
slice for test to surf or page.

See the example "pager.ksh" in this directory for a tuned version.
