NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     ttyflags - set device-specific flags for terminals

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

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

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     ttyflags sets the device-specific flags for terminals, 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.

     -p      Print out flag information about each terminal,  instead of setting
 anything.

     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    [Toc]    [Back]

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