        !            11: The  file  /eettcc/ttttyyss  describes  the  terminals in  the  COHERENT
        !            12: system.  The  process iinniitt reads this file when  it brings up the
        !            13: system in multi-user mode.
        !            14: 
        !            15: /eettcc/ttttyyss  contains  one  line  for  each  terminal.   Each  line
        !            16: consists of the following four fields:
        !            17: 
        !            18: 11.   The first field is  one character long, and indicates if the
        !            19:      device is enabled  for logins: `0' indicates that the device
        !            20:      is  not enabled,  and `1'  (one)  indicates that  logins are
        !            21:      enabled for the device.
        !            22: 
        !            23: 22.   The  second  field  is  one  character long,  and  indicates
        !            24:      whether  the device  is local (i.e.,  a terminal)  or remote
        !            25:      (i.e., a  modem): `r' indicates remote,  and `l' (lower-case
        !            26:      LL)  indicates  local.  If  `r'  is used  and  a password  is
        !            27:      included  for rreemmaacccc  (remote access)  in  /eettcc/ppaasssswwdd, then
        !            28:      persons logging in on this device will be required to supply
        !            29:      the  remote-access  password.  (See  the  Lexicon entry  for
        !            30:      ppaasssswwdd for more about rreemmaacccc).
        !            31: 
        !            32: 33.   The third  field is  one character  long, and sets  the baud
        !            33:      rate for  the device.  Note that a device  can have either a
        !            34:      fixed  baud rate,  or a variable  baud rate.   The following
        !            35:      table gives the codes for fixed baud rates:
        !            36:

        !            44: 
        !            45:      The  common  variable-speed  codes  terminal  types  are  as
        !            46:      follows:
        !            47: 
        !            48:      00       300, 1200, 150, 110
        !            49:      33       2400, 1200, 300
        !            50: 
        !            51:      When a  user dials into a variable-speed  line, a message is
        !            52:      sent to  the terminal using the first  speed listed.  If the
        !            53:      message is unintelligible, the user hits the <bbrreeaakk> key and
        !            54:      the  system  tries the  next  speed; and  so  on, until  the
        !            55:      correct speed is selected.
        !            56: 
        !            57: 44.   The fourth field names  the port that this device is plugged
        !            58:      into.   The following  table names  the ports  that COHERENT
        !            59:      recognizes:

        !            91:      local device, then you  must use a port descriptor that ends
        !            92:      in `l';  likewise, if field  2 states that this  is a remote
        !            93:      device,  the  port   descriptor  must  end  in  `r'.   Doing
        !            94:      otherwise will result in trouble.  See Lexicon entry ccoomm for

        !            98: Leaving blanks  at the  end of a  line usually results  in errors

        !           109: 
        !           110: Consider the following ttttyyss entry:

        !           113:           1lPconsole

        !           115: 
        !           116: Field 1  is the first  character.  Here it  is set to  `1' (one),
        !           117: which indicates  that the device is enabled  for logins.  Field 2
        !           118: is the  second character.  Here it is set  to `l' (lower-case LL),
        !           119: which  indicates that  this is  a local device.   Field 3  is the
        !           120: third character.   Here, it is  set to `P',  which indicates that
        !           121: the device  operates at the  fixed baud rate of  9600 baud.  This
        !           122: field is  ignored by the console device  driver since the console
        !           123: is not a serial device.  Finally, field 4 is the remainder of the
        !           124: line.   Here, it  indicates that  the device  in question  is the
        !           125: console.

        !           144: 
        !           145: Field 1  is the first  character.  Here it  is set to  `1' (one),
        !           146: which indicates  that the device is enabled  for logins.  Field 2
        !           147: is the second character.  Here  it is set to `r', which indicates
        !           148: that this  is a  remote device,  i.e., a modem.   Field 3  is the
        !           149: third character.   Here, it is  set to `3',  which indicates that
        !           150: the device  operates at  variable baud  rates of 2400,  1200, and
        !           151: 300.  By  hitting the <bbrreeaakk>  key on the terminal,  the user can
        !           152: select  from  among  those  three  baud  rates,  in  that  order.
        !           153: Finally,  field  4  is  the  remainder  of the  line.   Here,  it
        !           154: indicates that the device  in question is plugged into port ccoomm33,
        !           155: and is accessed via special file /ddeevv/ccoomm33rr.
