How to Fopen a terminal for read/write operations on an HP3000

I've had good luck with:

:FILE term,NEW;DEV=nnn;ACC=INOUT

This allows both read and write to the ldev (if it's AVAILable) and doesn't generate a REPLY request on the console.

Also be sure to check the Condition Code after the FOPEN to ensure it actually worked. Call PRINTFILEINFO if it's not CCE and that should give you a good FSERROR number to lookup.
