HOW TO USE PRDITTY. ------------------------------------------------------- Prditty is intended to hold open Realport serial devices and to optionally set port parameters. Install prditty in the etc directory. For SCO Unix: cp prditty.sco /etc/prditty For SVR4 unix: cp prditty.svr4 /etc/prditty.c The syntax for prditty is: /etc/prditty ... Example: /etc/prditty ttya01 19200 ixon opost /etc/prditty term/a01s ctspace -fastcook /etc/prditty dty/a001m forcedcd term wyse60 Prditty can also open the port without setting parameters. /etc/prditty ttyb16 A prditty entry can be added to the /etc/inittab file to allow it to be executed at system bootup. The syntax for the prditty entry in the inittab file is: :23:respawn:/etc/prditty ... The entries that were added to the inittab file when Realport was installed can be modified to reflect prgetty. Example: Original inittab entry: Eb01:23:respawn:/etc/getty ttya01 m Can be changed to: Eb01:23:respawn:/etc/prditty ttya01 4800 ixon -ixany When added to inittab, prgetty can be turned on and off. To turn it on change "off" to "respawn" in the inttab entry then execute init q. Or execute enable . To turn off change "respawn" to "off" then init q or execute disable .
