The design of the LANBridge 100, the first product incorporating that architecture, is described, along with the trade-offs made to achieve high performance. The speed of communication between terminals and systems depends on how they are connected. Bruce Mann, Colin Strutt, and Mark Kempf explain how they developed the LAT protocol to connect terminals to hosts on an Ethernet.

  • Name Description Files Notes See Also Colophon
    PTS(4) Linux Programmer’sManual PTS(4) NAME ptmx, pts − pseudoterminal master and slave DESCRIPTION The file /dev/ptmx is a character file with major number 5 and minor number 2, usually with mode 0666 and ownership root:root. It is used to create a pseudoterminal master and slave pair. When a process opens /dev/ptmx,itgets a file descriptor for a pseudoterminal master (PTM), and a pseu- doterminal slave (PTS) device is created in the /dev/pts directory.Each file descriptor obtained by opening /dev/ptmx is an independent PTM with its own associated PTS, whose path can be found by passing the file descriptor to ptsname(3). Before opening the pseudoterminal slave,you must pass the master’sfile descriptor to grantpt(3) and un- lockpt(3). Once both the pseudoterminal master and slave are open, the slave provides processes with an interface that is identical to that of a real terminal. Data written to the slave ispresented on the master file descriptor as input. Data written to the master is presented to the slave asinput. In practice, pseudoterminals are used for implementing terminal emulators such as xterm(1), in which data read from the pseudoterminal master is interpreted by the application in the same way a real terminal would interpret the data, and for implementing remote-login programs such as sshd(8), in which data read from the pseudoterminal master is sent across the network to a client program that is connected to a terminal or terminal emulator. Pseudoterminals can also be used to send input to programs that normally refuse to read input from pipes (such as su(1), and passwd(1)).

  • A Multiplatform Pseudo Terminal
    A Multi-Platform Pseudo Terminal API Project Report Submitted in Partial Fulfillment for the Masters' Degree in Computer Science By Qutaiba Mahmoud Supervised By Dr. Clinton Jeffery ABSTRACT This project is the construction of a pseudo-terminal API, which will provide a pseudo-terminal interface access to interactive programs. The API is aimed at developing an extension to the Unicon language to allow Unicon programs to easily utilize applications that require user interaction via a terminal. A pseudo-terminal is a pair of virtual devices that provide a bidirectional communication channel. This project was constructed to enable an enhancement to a collaborative virtual environment, because it will allow external tools such to be utilized within the same environment. In general the purpose of this API is to allow the UNICON runtime system to act as the user via the terminal which is provided by the API, the terminal is in turn connected to a client process such as a compiler, debugger, or an editor. It can also be viewed as a way for the UNICON environment to control and customize the input and output of external programs. Table of Contents: 1. Introduction 1.1 Pseudo Terminals 1.2 Other Terminals 1.3 Relation To Other Pseudo Terminal Applications. 2. Methodology 2.1 Pseudo Terminal API Function Description 3. Results 3.1 UNIX Implementation 3.2 Windows Implementation 4. Conclusion 5. Recommendations 6. References Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Clinton Jeffery, for his support, patience and understanding. Dr. Jeffery has always been prompt in delivering and sharing his knowledge and in providing his assistance.

  • Introduction Use Runit with Traditional Init (Sysvinit)
    2021/07/26 19:10 (UTC) 1/12 Runit Runit Introduction runit is a UNIX init scheme with service supervision. It is a cross-platform Unix init scheme with service supervision, a replacement for sysvinit, and other init schemes and supervision that are used with the traditional init. runit is compatible with djb's daemontools. In Unix-based computer operating systems, init (short for initialization) is the first process started during booting of the computer system. Init is a daemon process that continues running until the system is shut down. Slackware comes with its own legacy init (/sbin/init) from the sysvinit package, that used to be included in almost all other major Linux distributions. The init daemon (or its replacement) is characterised by Process ID 1 (PID 1). To read on the benefits of runit, see here: http://smarden.org/runit/benefits.html * Unless otherwise stated, all commands in this article are to be run by root. Use runit with traditional init (sysvinit) runit is not provided by Slackware, but a SlackBuild is maintained on https://slackbuilds.org/. It does not have any dependencies. As we do not want yet to replace init with runit, run the slackbuild with CONFIG=no: CONFIG=no ./runit.SlackBuild Then install the resulting package and proceed as follows: mkdir /etc/runit/ /service/ cp -a /usr/doc/runit-*/etc/2 /etc/runit/ /sbin/runsvdir-start & Starting via rc.local For a typical Slackware-stlyle service, you can edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local file if [ -x /sbin/runsvdir-start ]; then /sbin/runsvdir-start & fi and then edit write /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown #!/bin/sh SlackDocs - https://docs.slackware.com/ Last update: 2020/05/06 08:08 (UTC) howtos:slackware_admin:runit https://docs.slackware.com/howtos:slackware_admin:runit RUNIT=x$( /sbin/pidof runsvdir ) if [ "$RUNIT" != x ]; then kill $RUNIT fi Then give rc.local_shutdown executive permission: chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown and reboot Starting via inittab (supervised) Remove the entries in /etc/rc.d/rc.local and /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown described above.

  • Chapter 1 Introducing Python
    3 Chapter 1 Introducing Python 1.1: Introduction Python is a programming language that is both simple and powerful. For those who have struggled with learning programming languages in the past, this may come as a pleasant surprise. This chapter describes some of the main features of Python and its use as a programming language to write scripts for ArcGIS. The logic and struc- ture of this book and the accompanying exercises is described, followed by some examples of how Python is used. The final part of this chapter intro- duces Python editors that make it easier to write and organize your code. 1.2: Exploring the features of Python Python has a number of features that make it the programming language of choice for working with ArcGIS. Among them: It’s simple and easy to learn: Python is easy to learn compared with other highly structured programming languages like C++ or Visual Basic. The syntax is simple, which gives you more time to focus on solving problems than having to learn the language itself. It’s free and open source: Python is free and open source software ( FOSS ). You can freely distribute copies of the software, read the source code, make changes to it, and use pieces of it in new free programs. One of the reasons Python works so well is that it has been created, and is constantly being improved, by an active and dedicated user community. The FOSS nature of Python makes it possible for Esri to distribute Python with ArcGIS software. It’s cross platform: Python is supported on different platforms, includ- ing Windows, Mac, Linux, and many others.
