"""Pseudo terminal utilities."""
# Bugs: No signal handling. Doesn't set slave termios and window size.
# Only tested on Linux.

# UNIX Environment. Chapter 19.
# Author: Steen Lumholt -- with additions by Guido.

# Absurd: import termios and then delete it. This is to force an attempt

# Without this explicit import of termios here, some other module may
# import tty first, which in turn imports termios and dies with an
# ImportError then. But since tty *does* exist across platforms, that
# leaves a damaged module object for tty in sys.modules, and the import
# of tty here then appears to work despite that the tty imported is junk.
