Howdy folks!
I'm hoping somebody out there can help me. I've never worked on
code that messes with pseudo-terminals, so I'm still fuzzy on the
concepts involved.
I'm trying to use pty-redir(1). For those of you who are not
familiar with it, it basically attaches a program to /dev/ptyXX and
then prints to stdout /dev/ttyXX. The idea is that someone can then
attach to the tty and control the program on the pty.
Its not working for me, however. In fact, I've never been able to
get it to work. Here's what my goal is:
I want to start a shell on a pty, then attach to the tty (using
screen(1), for example), pop, have a shell. Screen(1) has the
wonderful ability to attach to a specified tty! :-) Yay! Ok, that
side is done, since I use screen(1) already. pty-redir(1) is
intended to do the other side. The code I'm using is posted here
[1]. The virgin 0.1 release exhibits the same problem, and 0.2 is
debian specific. The code at [1] is a merger of the two. :-)
Help! :-!
If, per chance, this is not the best place to ask this question,
please direct me elsewhere.
