"DESCRIPTION": {
"content": "\"IO::Tty\" is used internally by \"IO::Pty\" to create a pseudo-tty. You\nwouldn't want to use it directly except to import constants, use\n\"IO::Pty\". For a list of importable constants, see IO::Tty::Constant.\n\nWindows is now supported, but ONLY under the Cygwin environment, see\n.\n\nPlease note that pty creation is very system-dependend. From my\nexperience, any modern POSIX system should be fine. Find below a list of\nsystems that \"IO::Tty\" should work on. A more detailed table (which is\nslowly getting out-of-date) is available from the project pages document\nmanager at SourceForge .\n\nIf you have problems on your system and your system is listed in the\n\"verified\" list, you probably have some non-standard setup, e.g. you\ncompiled your Linux-kernel yourself and disabled ptys (bummer!). Please\nask your friendly sysadmin for help.\n\nIf your system is not listed, unpack the latest version of \"IO::Tty\", do\na 'perl Makefile.PL; make; make test; uname -a' and send me\n(RGiersig@cpan.org) the results and I'll see what I can deduce from\nthat. There are chances that it will work right out-of-the-box...\n\nIf it's working on your system, please send me a short note with details\n(version number, distribution, etc. 'uname -a' and 'perl -V' is a good\nstart; also, the output from \"perl Makefile.PL\" contains a lot of\ninteresting info, so please include that as well) so I can get an\noverview. Thanks!\n\nVERIFIED SYSTEMS, KNOWN ISSUES\nThis is a list of systems that \"IO::Tty\" seems to work on ('make test'\npasses) with comments about \"features\":\n\n* AIX 4.3\n\nReturns EIO instead of EOF when the slave is closed. Benign.\n\n* AIX 5.x\n\n* FreeBSD 4.4\n\nEOF on the slave tty is not reported back to the master.\n\n* OpenBSD 2.8\n\nThe ioctl TIOCSCTTY sometimes fails. This is also known in\nTcl/Expect, see http://expect.nist.gov/FAQ.html\n\nEOF on the slave tty is not reported back to the master.\n\n* Darwin 7.9.0\n\n* HPUX 10.20 & 11.00\n\nEOF on the slave tty is not reported back to the master.\n\n* IRIX 6.5\n\n* Linux 2.2.x & 2.4.x\n\nReturns EIO instead of EOF when the slave is closed. Benign.\n\n* OSF 4.0\n\nEOF on the slave tty is not reported back to the master.\n\n* Solaris 8, 2.7, 2.6\n\nHas the \"feature\" of returning EOF just once?!\n\nEOF on the slave tty is not reported back to the master.\n\n* Windows NT/2k/XP (under Cygwin)\n\nWhen you send (print) a too long line (>160 chars) to a non-raw pty,\nthe call just hangs forever and even alarm() cannot get you out.\nDon't complain to me...\n\nEOF on the slave tty is not reported back to the master.\n\n* z/OS\n\nThe following systems have not been verified yet for this version, but a\nprevious version worked on them:\n\n* SCO Unix\n\n* NetBSD\n\nprobably the same as the other *BSDs...\n\nIf you have additions to these lists, please mail them to\n.\n",
