[comp.unix.internals] Writing "from" another tty

jetfuel@csusac.csus.edu (Dave Jenks) (09/22/90)

Thanks to those who obviously desired to assist me in figuring out how
to simulate input from another terminal on my 3b1.

A common suggestion was to use the TIOCSTI ("Simulate Terminal Input"
ioctl.  This does not exist on the 3b1 (at least not in 3.51).  I
fgrep'ed for TIOCSTI in all of /usr/include/* /usr/include/sys/*, and
there were none.

Yes, I looked in the `f'ing manual' (a suggestion by a respondant),
and it is, of course, not there.

I *do* appreciate the honest efforts, and still have very few clues as
to how to attack this problem.

If you feel up to it -
writing your own device driver will let you do ANYTHING you want to do.
