STDIN Devie File Name and Location

Hi all,
I want to know the device filename of STDIN in AIX.
On other platforms(Linux and solaris), the device file for stdin is available at /dev/ directory as "/dev/stdin".
But i didn't find any filename for STDIN at /dev/ directory in AIX.

Please let me know the name and location of device file of STDIN in AIX.

Thanks

regards,
Srikrishna Erra.

SHOWCONSOLE(8)						       The SuSE boot concept						    SHOWCONSOLE(8)

NAME
Showconsole - determines the underlying tty of stdin Setconsole - sets the underlying tty of /dev/console SYNOPSIS
showconsole [-n] setconsole /dev/tty<xy> < /dev/console DESCRIPTION
showconsole determines the underlying character device of the current stdin. This can be used on /dev/console as current character device to get the real character device back. setconsole sets the underlying tty of the system console /dev/console. This requires that the standard input is identical with /dev/con- sole and exactly one argument, a valid character device is given. OPTIONS
-n Return the major and minor device numbers instead of the device file name. This can be used to asked the kernel for the major and minor device numbers of a not existing device file in /dev. BUGS
showconsole needs a mounted /proc file system and tries to set the controlling tty to stdin if no controlling tty is found. After reading /proc the status of the controlling tty is restored to avoid problems with getty processes. FILES
/proc/<pid of showconsole>/stat the stat file of the showconsole process. /dev/console the system console. SEE ALSO
