Packrat that I am, I had a copy of console stashed away in my archives and
had forgotten about it.  For this job, it's a easier solution than apmtst.

I took a quick look at the console sources.  Despite the author's claim of
being new to C, the code is a good example of how to implement this kind
of tool.

I thought I recognized some of the coding style.  Turn's out Andrew
Zabolotny is also the author of lxlite, which is  written in Pascal.
