DESCRIPTION

The SYSV_PTY shell script activates the SVR4 pty (pseudo terminal) name space as the default. The SVR4 pty special files have a name in the form of /dev/pts/N. The SYSV_PTY shell script takes no arguments. To reactivate the BSD pseudoterminal name space, invoke the MAKEDEV command to create the pty special files.
