Yes, one dozen in 386 Toolkit 2.0.  /dev/color and /dev/mono are there also.

The toolkit kernel seems to be stable as long as you don't hit the key
that activates the kernel debugger.

Main problem is wedging of a serial port, and multiple UUXQT's running.

In general, the current toolkit is getting close to Xenix 386.  The 386
compiler passes now use 386 code, and are much faster than the 286 passes.
Of course if you want compiler speed, you'll have to wait for the DOS
partition to run TurboC.
