/* Returns a pointer to a character string containing the tty name of a
 * logged-on user.  If the user is logged on more than once, the tty
 * returned is the one that has been used most recently.  If the user is
 * not presently logged on, the null string is returned.  Each call to
 * findtty returns a pointer to the same data area, so the string must
 * be copied if it is to be used again.
 *
 * NOTE: if this code is compiled with the "-DMAIN" option, then a main
 * program will be produced, instead of a function.  The main program
 * takes one user name as argument and outputs the ttyname on standard
 * output.
