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


NAME

     ttyflags - set device-specific flags for terminals


SYNOPSIS

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


DESCRIPTION

     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.

     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.


FILES

     /etc/ttys

HISTORY

     The ttyflags utility appeared in NetBSD 0.9A.


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.
