                     25: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     26: .I Uugetty
                     27: is identical to getty(1m) but changes have been made to support
                     28: using the line for uucico, cu, and ct;
                     29: that is, the line can be used in both directions.
                     30: The uugetty will allow users to login, but if the line is free,
                     31: uucico, cu, or ct can use it for dialing out.
                     32: The implementation depends on the fact that uucico, cu, and ct
                     33: create lock files when devices are used.
                     34: When the "open()" returns
                     35: (or the first character is read when
                     36: .B \-r
                     37: option is used)
                     38: the status of the lock file indicates whether the line is being
                     39: used by uucico, cu, ct, or someone trying to login.
                     40: Note that in the
                     41: .B \-r
                     42: case, several <carriage-return> characters may be required before the
                     43: login message is output.
                     44: The human users will be able to handle this slight inconvenience.
                     45: Uucico trying to login will have to be told by using the following
                     46: login script:
                     47: 
                     48:        ""  \\r\\d\\r\\d\\r\\d\\r in:--in: . . .
                     49: .sp
                     50: where the . . . is whatever would normally be used for the login sequence.
                     51: 
                     52: Here is a /etc/inittab entry using uugetty on an 801/212
                     53: dialer:
                     54:

                     56: 
                     57: The line name, cul04 is the name that appears in the /usr/lib/uucp/Devices
                     58: file for the 212 dialer.
                     59: 
                     60: An entry for an intelligent modem or direct line that has a uugetty
                     61: on each end must use the
                     62: .B \-r
                     63: option.
                     64: (This causes uugetty to wait to read a character before it put out the
                     65: login message, thus preventing two uugettys from looping.)
                     66: Here is a /etc/inittab entry using uugetty on an intelligent modem or
                     67: direct line:
                     68:
