      TTYTYPE(5)              GENIX Programmer's Manual              TTYTYPE(5)



      NAME
           ttytype - data base of terminal types by port

      SYNOPSIS
           /etc/ttytype

      DESCRIPTION
           Ttytype is a database containing, for each tty port on  the  system,
           the  kind of terminal that is attached to it.  There is one line per
           port, containing the terminal kind (as  a  name  listed  in  termcap
           (5)), a space, and the name of the tty, minus /dev/.

           This information is read by tset(1) and by  login(1)  to  initialize
           the TERM variable at login time.

      BUGS
           Some lines are merely known as "dialup" or "plugboard".
