Subject: Does anyone still care about BSD ptys?
Date: Mon, 9 Feb 2004 07:17:27 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c07c67$vrs$1@terminus.zytor.com> (raw)
Hi all,
Does anyone still care about old-style BSD ptys, i.e. /dev/pty*? I'm
thinking of restructuring the pty system slightly to make it more
dynamic and to make use of the new larger dev_t, and I'd like to get
rid of the BSD ptys as part of the same patch.
