TTYFLAGS(8) System Manager's Manual TTYFLAGS(8)

NAME

ttyflagsset device-specific flags for terminals

SYNOPSIS

ttyflags [-v] [-a | tty ...]

DESCRIPTION

ttyflags sets the device-specific flags for terminals using TIOCSFLAGS, based on the flags found on the terminal's line in /etc/ttys.

The options are as follows:

-a
Set the flags for all terminals in /etc/ttys.
-v
Be verbose about what the terminals' flags will be set to.

The tty arguments are optional, but must not be specified if the -a flag is used. If specified, the tty arguments should be the base names of the ttys, as found in /etc/ttys.

BUGS

The conditions on which to report an error are ill-defined. ttyflags tries to report all significant errors, perhaps going over-board at times.
