sets terminal type, modes, speed and line discipline. It is similar to
except that supports using the line in both directions (see getty(1M)).
This allows users to log in, but, if the line is free, and can dial out
(see uucico(1), cu(1), and ct(1)). When devices are used with and lock
files are created. Therefore, when the call to returns (see open(2))
(or the first character is read when the option is used), the status of
the lock files indicates whether the line is used by or someone trying
to log in. See getty(1M) for more information.
Note that with the option, several carriage-return characters might be
required before the login message is output. When is trying to log in,
it can be instructed to enter numerous carriage-return characters with
the following login script:
where ... represents whatever would normally be used for the login
sequence.
An entry for an intelligent modem or direct line that has a on each end

before it enters the login message, thus preventing two instances of
from looping). If there is a on one end of a direct line, there must
be a on the other end as well.
EXAMPLES
The following line is an entry using on an intelligent modem or direct
