NAME¶
termio - System V terminal driver interface
DESCRIPTION¶
termio is the name of the old System V terminal driver interface. This
interface defined a
termio structure used to store terminal settings,
and a range of
ioctl(2) operations to get and set terminal attributes.
The
termio interface is now obsolete: POSIX.1-1990 standardized a
modified version of this interface, under the name
termios. The POSIX.1
data structure differs slightly from the System V version, and POSIX.1 defined
a suite of functions to replace the various
ioctl(2) operations that
existed in System V. (This was done because
ioctl(2) was
unstandardized, and its variadic third argument does not allow argument type
checking.)
If you're looking for page called "termio", then you can probably find
most of the information that you seek in either
termios(3) or
tty_ioctl(4).
