This link is also in the tinderclient README.  I added some additional
details on use of 'screen', etc.  The tinderbox itself is here:

You check it out of CVS from freedesktop.org, and it has all the bits
you need.  It's pretty straightforward to set up, and the instructions
are easy to follow step-by-step.  There's not really many dependencies
to set up (except basics like cvs, perl, etc.)
