SYNOPSIS

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.
