Struct tty::Tty

pub struct Tty { /* private fields */ }

A terminal device driver.

The design is based on the Unix TTY/PTY subsystem. Unlike Unix, Theseus does not distinguish between teletypes and pseudo-teletypes. Each Tty consists of two ends: a Master and a Slave. The terminal holds the master and the application holds the slave. The TTY’s LineDiscipline dictates how the two interact.

In the context of Theseus, there are two terminals:

• terminal_emulator, which is the graphical terminal emulator implemented in Theseus.
• console, which connects to an external terminal emulator through a serial port.

When started, both terminals launch the shell, which contains the logic to launch applications, store command history, autocomplete input, etc.
