[Martin Dalecki]

The is CRAP (no no my computer is fine):
But of course nobody ever noticed - since nobody is using this insane
stuff.
(The info this is intended to provide is typical /proc bloat anyway...)

Ahh!!!!! and now actually providing MAN PAGES through /proc:


--root:/proc/tty# cat drivers
serial               /dev/cua        5  64-127 serial:callout
serial               /dev/ttyS       4  64-127 serial
pty_slave            /dev/pts      136   0-255 pty:slave
pty_master           /dev/ptm      128   0-255 pty:master
pty_slave            /dev/ttyp       3   0-255 pty:slave
pty_master           /dev/pty        2   0-255 pty:master
/dev/tty0            /dev/tty0       4       0 system:vtmaster
/dev/ptmx            /dev/ptmx       5       2 system
/dev/console         /dev/console    5       1 system:console
/dev/tty             /dev/tty        5       0 system:/dev/tty
unknown              /dev/tty        4    1-63 console

Buggerback "compatibility" or what?:

root:/proc/tty/ldisc# ls -l
total 0
root:/proc/tty/ldisc# 

root:/proc/tty# cat ldiscs
n_tty       0
root:/proc/tty#
