Not sure if I have the terminology straight, but here goes:

From home, I connected to my work computer (linux) and began
running a lengthy program that was directing output to standard
out... so I have a terminal window open at home and it's
scrolling the output as we speak ( on /dev/pts/10). However,
I'm at work now, and the program is still running ... is there
any way I can tell the running program to continue running but
send its output to a new tty (i.e., my current console window)?

I realize I could have used nohup and piped the ouput into a
file (and used tail), but there have been a couple of times
where I preferred not to do this, for whatever reason.

Thanks,

Seems like you'd have to include that in the program you
are running, or a wrapper script for it.

Something along the lines of:

ls -l | tee /dev/ttyp3
