What command are you using when you say "My tty keeps on changing" ?
You should have one tty per windows you open.
Do you mean when you type the tty command into the same windows several time it is continuously giving a changing result?
When I type tty into my terminal it is giving me different information. Each different terminal window is giving different information. This is what I see in my first 2 terminal window's.
Hi all ^_^
Okay, here's the problem:
There's an IBM RS6000 server running AIX 4.3 with Informix database in my workplace. During peak hours, it has about 350 users doing mostly database operations. It has been set up that those users can only log-in the system at one terminal at a time. Due... (3 Replies)

It's happened multiple times and I can't figure out why it's happening or how to undo it, but hitting CTRL-S seems to disable the given TTY on 'nixes of various flavors. Killing the pid doesn't bring the tty back, I end up having to use other tty's until I reboot.
Anyone got some information for... (2 Replies)
In bash, you can do something like this:
#!/bin/bash

How can I do the same in python?

pty
PTY(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual PTY(4)NAME
pty -- BSD-style compatibility pseudo-terminal driver
SYNOPSIS
device pty
DESCRIPTION
The pty driver provides support for the traditional BSD naming scheme that was used for accessing pseudo-terminals. When the device
/dev/ptyXX is being opened, a new terminal shall be created with the pts(4) driver. A device node for this terminal shall be created, which
has the name /dev/ttyXX.
New code should not try to allocate pseudo-terminals using this interface. It is only provided for compatibility with older C libraries that
tried to open such devices when posix_openpt(2) was being called.
FILES
The BSD-style compatibility pseudo-terminal driver uses the following device names:
/dev/pty[l-sL-S][0-9a-v] Pseudo-terminal master devices.
/dev/tty[l-sL-S][0-9a-v] Pseudo-terminal slave devices.
DIAGNOSTICS
None.
SEE ALSO posix_openpt(2), pts(4), tty(4)HISTORY
A pseudo-terminal driver appeared in 4.2BSD.
BUGS
Unlike previous implementations, the master slave device nodes are destroyed when the PTY becomes unused. A call to stat(2) on a nonexistent
master device will already cause a new master device node to be created. The master device can only be destroyed by opening and closing it.
The pty driver cannot be unloaded, because it cannot determine if it is being used.
