You have to make a remote connection to the Hipster machine.  I use
rlogin, but ssh would work as well.  `emacs -nw' might also work, or
you can unset DISPLAY .  I don't have a graphic console on that
machine, so that's the only way I can run emacs.  It will paste at the
cursor, the same as if you typed the phrase.
