You can't at the moment. tty is the console environment, so all reads and write are to the console not directly to the PC. It is possible to load any PC files to Yaroze the same way that .tim and .tmd files are done. Other than this unless someone rewrites siocons all files have to be loaded from PC at the start of the program. Stuart
