Vladimir Konjkov added the comment: However, I don't understand this entire point: What do you mean by "using TCGETA requires that struct termio be defined"? How is TCGETA defined to produce such a dependency? TCGETA is a constant, right? ------------------------------------------------------------------- terminal I/O control has three different implementations under SVR4, BSD, and POSIX.1.
SVR4 uses the termio structure, and various ioctl calls (such as TCGETA, TCSETA, TCSETAW, and TCSETAF) on a terminal device to obtain and set parameters with the termio structure. Under POSIX, the termios struct is used, along with various functions defined by POSIX.1, such as tcsetattr and tcgetattr. Under QNX <termios.h> - is POSIX implimentation with functions tcsetattr and tcgetattr defined, but in <ioctl.h> that included in <termio.h> define MACROS TCGETA, TCSETA, TCSETAW, and TCSETAF. That's why we need <termio.h> or simlink <sys/termio.h>. Why do you want TCGETA, TCSETA, TCSETAW, and TCSETAF in Python if there is POSIX tcsetattr and tcgetattr functions? _____________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1722225> _____________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
