HOW TO USE PRGETTY. ------------------------------------------------------- Prgetty is intended to hold open Realport serial devices and to optionally set port parameters. Install prgetty in the etc directory. For SCO Unix: cp prgetty.sco /etc/prgetty For SVR4 unix: cp prgetty.svr4 /etc/pretty The syntax for prgetty is: /etc/prgetty ... & Example: /etc/prgetty ttya01 19200 ixon opost & /etc/prgetty term/a01s ctspace -fastcook & /etc/prgetty dty/a001m forcedcd term wyse60 & Prgetty can also open the port without setting parameters. /etc/prgetty ttyb16 & A prgetty entry can be added to the /etc/inittab file to allow it to be executed at system bootup. The syntax for the prgetty entry in the inittab file is: :23:respawn:/etc/prgetty ... The "&" does not need to added in inittab entry. The entries that were added to the inittab file when Realport was installed cab be modified to reflect prgetty. Example: Original inittab entry: Eb01:23:respawn:/etc/getty ttya01 m Can be changed to: Eb01:23:respawn:/etc/prgetty 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 .
