SYNOPSIS

char *ttyname(fildes)

DESCRIPTION

Ttyname returns a pointer to the null-terminated path name of the terminal device associated with file descriptor fildes.

DIAGNOSTICS

Ttyname returns a null pointer (0) if fildes does not describe a terminal device in directory ’/dev’.

BUGS

The return value points to static data whose content is overwritten by each call.
