NAME

getpt − open the pseudo-terminal master (PTM)

SYNOPSIS

#include <stdlib.h>

int getpt(void)

DESCRIPTION

getpt() opens a pseudo-terminal master and returns its file descriptor. It is equivalent to open("/dev/ptmx",O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY) on Linux systems, though the pseudo-terminal master is located elsewhere on some systems that use GNU Libc.

RETURN VALUE

getpt() returns an open file descriptor upon successful completion. Otherwise, it returns -1 and sets errno to indicate the error.

CONFORMING TO

getpt() is specific to GNU Libc.
