        !            12: The COHERENT  system is a  multiuser operating system;  it allows
        !            13: many  users to  use the  system simultaneously.   An asynchronous
        !            14: communication port connects  each user to the system, normally by
        !            15: a  terminal or  a modem  attached to the  port.  The  system com-
        !            16: municates with  the port by means of a  character special file in
        !            17: directory /dev, such as /ddeevv/ccoomm33rr or /ddeevv/ccoomm22ll.
        !            18: 
        !            19: The COHERENT system will not allow a user to log in on a port un-
        !            20: til the system creates a  login process for the port.  The enable
        !            21: command tells the system to create a login process for each given
        !            22: port.  For example, the command
        !            23: 
        !            24: 
        !            25:         /etc/enable com1r

        !            27: 
        !            28: enables port /dev/com1r.
        !            29: 
        !            30: enable  changes the  entry for  each given  port in  the terminal
        !            31: characteristics  file  /etc/ttys.   The  baud rate  specified  in
        !            32: /etc/ttys must  be the appropriate baud rate  for the terminal or
        !            33: modem connected to the port.   See the Lexicon entry for ttys for
        !            34: more information.
        !            35: 
        !            36: The command disable  disables a port.  The command ttystat checks
        !            37: whether a port is enabled or disabled.

        !            50: enable normally  returns one if it  enables the port successfully
        !            51: and  zero if  not.  If  more than one  port is  specified, enable
        !            52: returns the success or failure  status of the last port it finds.
        !            53: It returns -1  if it cannot find any given  port.  An exit status
        !            54: of -2 indicates an error.
