We need to generate "ptys2" and "tty39" for them, not "ptys/2" and "tty/39". So a more complex logic is required here. Faced with this difficulty, I decided not to bother, since the value of `ttname' is not documented to return a valid file name. Perhaps some Linux guru (which I ain't) can suggest an easy solution.

It's a good heursitic, but it's still just a heuristic.
You may have a /dev/tty directory and still use /dev/tty1.
Maybe it's better to get rid of the "/dev/" prefix to make it more clear
that it's not really a valid file name.


        Stefan


  
you mean /dev/tty1 and /dev/tty/1 will exist at the same time?
It won't as I know in linux

procfs_ttyname should return a full path of the ttyname, or at least one function can return the fullpath.

No, I mean both /dev/tty1 being the device you want and /dev/tty being a directory. Rather than ISDIR you could indeed just check which of /dev/tty1 and /dev/tty/1 exists and if only one exists then you should be pretty sure which answer is the right one. If they both exist (or if neither exists), it's much less clear what to do. > It won't as I know in Linux That depends on the dev layout chosen by the distribution/user/...
