NAME
wwconfig - Configures tty features for Asian countries SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/wwconfig [-a | -A | -d | -D] [-n | -N] [-s | -l] OPTIONS
Merges worldwide support tty features into the system configuration file by prompting you to choose among options. Merges all worldwide support tty features into the system configuration file. When you specify the -A option, you are not prompted to choose among options. Deletes from the system configuration file only the worldwide support tty features that have been de-installed. Deletes all worldwide sup- port tty features from the system configuration file. Dynamically links the Asian terminal driver into the kernel at boot time. (A kernel rebuild is not required when the driver is dynamically linked.) The -l option also specifies use of the STREAMS terminal driver with the pseudo terminal device used for network login. (If past use of wwconfig caused the BSD terminal driver to be used for this pseudo terminal device, then the -l option will cause a fallback to the STREAMS terminal driver.) The -l option is the default if the Asian terminal driver is not already installed. Otherwise, the default is for wwconfig to use the linking method that was used for the currently installed driver. Does not rebuild the kernel. Rebuilds the network kernel for DMS support. Statically links the Asian terminal driver into the kernel image. A kernel rebuild and replacement must then be done before the Asian terminal driver is available for use. This option also forces use of the BSD terminal driver with the pseudo termi- nal device used for network login. DESCRIPTION
The wwconfig procedure integrates worldwide support tty features into the running kernel or removes those features from the kernel. Cur- rently, you can configure a generic Asian multibyte tty driver (atty) and a single-byte Thai tty driver (ttty) into the running kernel. The Asian tty driver has several optional features that you can choose to set up. Depending on which subsets are installed, the wwconfig procedure may ask questions on the following topics: The UTX daemons to start and connect to the atty driver through the utxd daemon. You can choose to start the following UTX daemons: To support the Kana-Kanji conversion method for Japanese To support on-demand loading of user-defined characters To support the phrase input method for Chinese Refer to kkcd(8), odld(8), and simd(8) for more information about these daemons. For Chinese, whether BIG-5, Telecode (Telex), or both codesets are supported as valid terminal codes and whether codeset conversion support is included for Simplified and Tradi- tional Chinese. How many UTX pseudo devices to create Whether the Thai tty driver, if installed, is set up in addition to the Asian tty driver As is true for kernel layered products, the wwconfig command uses the kreg utility to register the worldwide support tty features. After the kernel configuration process completes, config.file in the /usr/i18n/sys/BINARY directory is updated to reflect the tty features that you selected. The current system configuration file is also updated, if necessary. Because the tty features are registered through the kreg utility, you can use the doconfig command to build a new kernel without affecting the current setup for worldwide support tty features.

NAME
ttty - Thai terminal driver SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/aioctl.h> DESCRIPTION
This section describes special features supported by the Thai terminal driver, which is used for conversational computing in a Thai envi- ronment. See tty(7) for a general description of terminal interfaces. See stty(1) for information on how to activate the features dis- cussed here. The Thai terminal driver is available only when Tru64 UNIX optional subsets for worldwide support are installed. This driver also must be configured into the current running kernel in order for Thai support features to be enabled. Line Disciplines Line discipline switching to the Thai terminal driver is accomplished with the following TIOCSETD ioctl: int ldisc = THAIDISC; ioctl(f, TIOCSETD, &ldisc); Input Sequence Checking The Thai terminal driver supports input sequence checking that complies with the Wototo standard. The three different modes of input sequence checking are as follows: Mode 0 (pass-through) No input checking is performed. This mode allows the application program to handle checking of the input sequence. Mode 1 (basic check) This is the default mode for a Thai system. Mode 2 (strict) This mode imposes additional constraints in order to reject obviously illegal input sequences. Input Reordering Input reordering mode, if activated, will reorder the following two types of Thai sequences: L3L1L2 -> L3L2L1 L3L4L1 -> L3L1L4 In these sequences, L1, L2, L3, and L4 are level-1, level-2, level-3, and level-4 characters, respectively. History Mode Line Editing The history mode of the Thai terminal driver allows users to use Emacs-like control codes to edit previously entered command lines. Up to 32 lines can be stored and each line can have a maximum width of 127 characters. However, short command lines, those that are fewer than three characters in length, are not stored in the history list. Depending on the editing command used, the unit of editing may be a character, a cell, or a word. A cell is one physical display column on the screen and may consist of one ASCII character or one to three Thai characters. In this context, a word is a string of characters delimited by white spaces. The following editing commands are available in the history mode: Move to the beginning of the line. Delete the cell under the cursor. Move to the end of the line. Recall the previous command in the history list. Recall the next command in the history list. Move the cursor to the left by one cell. Move the cursor to the right by one cell. Delete the Thai character immediately before the cursor. You can use the stty command to determine and set the character that erases a character. Delete the word before the cursor. You can use the stty command to determine and set the character that erases a word. Typing a normal character causes it to be inserted before the character under the cursor. The kill, interrupt, and suspend characters cause the Thai terminal driver to break out of the history mode. Input sequence checking and input reordering are not performed in history mode. The line-editing features support only single-line edit- ing, not multiple-line editing. For instance, if the cursor is wrapped to the beginning of the next line, you cannot return the cursor to the previous line by pressing the left arrow key. RELATED INFORMATION
