#include <\/b><\/p>\nint getpt(void);<\/b><\/p>\nDESCRIPTION <\/a> <\/h2>\ngetpt<\/b>() opens a new pseudoterminal device and returns a file descriptor that refers to that device. It is equivalent to opening the pseudoterminal multiplexor device<\/p>\n

on Linux systems, though the pseudoterminal multiplexor device is located elsewhere on some systems that use the GNU C library.<\/p>\n
RETURN VALUE <\/a> <\/h2>\ngetpt<\/b>() returns an open file descriptor upon successful completion.
