remote echo
<communications> (Obsolete: "full-duplex") A mode of operation of
communicating programs or devices in which the sending system does not display
the characters the user enters, but only sends them to the remote system which
then "echoes" them back to be displayed to the user. This lets the operator see
not only typing errors, but also transmission errors. This is now the usual mode
of most systems with remote users.
Contrast: local echo.
