Questions about (Pseudo)Terminal devices
hi
I'm learning(trying to) about Terminal and pseudo-terminal devices. 1---I've read that on unix's BSD systems files with names like /dev/ptyp0 or /dev/ptyp3 represent pseudo terminal master devices, and files like /dev/tty3 represent slave devices. Are same files used in linux also? 2---If the above files represent pseudo terminals,then what do /dev/pts/"some number" represent? 3---Which files represent local (NON-pseudo) terminals? 4---When I log in locally,is my keyboard and display card considered a regular terminal? I'm asking this cos I have read in linux book that as far as Linux is concerned,those two are just very fast remote terminals (meaning pseudo terminals) I hope you can help me on this,since info about terminals is very hard to find thank you very much |
