2949f483 | 28 | .SH NAME |
eebc6bfc | 29 | termio \- System V terminal driver interface |
2949f483 MK |
30 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
31 | .B termio | |
32 | is the name of the old System V terminal driver interface. | |
c13182ef | 33 | This interface defined a |
2949f483 MK |
34 | .I termio |
35 | structure used to store terminal settings, and a range of | |
36 | .BR ioctl (2) | |
37 | operations to get and set terminal attributes. | |
38 | ||
39 | The | |
40 | .B termio | |
41 | interface is now obsolete: POSIX.1-1990 standardized a modified | |
42 | version of this interface, under the name | |
43 | .BR termios . | |
c13182ef | 44 | The POSIX.1 data structure differs slightly from the |
2949f483 MK |
45 | System V version, and POSIX.1 defined a suite of functions |
46 | to replace the various | |
63f6a20a | 47 | .BR ioctl (2) |
2949f483 MK |
48 | operations that existed in System V. |
49 | (This was done because | |
63f6a20a | 50 | .BR ioctl (2) |
d9bfdb9c | 51 | was unstandardized, and its variadic third argument |
2949f483 MK |
52 | does not allow argument type checking.) |

2949f483 MK |
55 | find most of the information that you seek in either |
56 | .BR termios (3) | |
57 | or | |
58 | .BR tty_ioctl (4). | |
