NAME
tty - print the path of the terminal connected to standard input
SYNOPSIS
tty
[-s] [--silent] [--quiet]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page
documents the GNU version of
tty.
tty
prints the path name of the tty connected to its standard input. It
prints `not a tty' if the standard input is not a tty. Its exit
status is:
0 if the standard input is a tty
1 if the standard input is not a tty
2 if given incorrect arguments
OPTIONS
- -s, --silent, --quiet
-
Print nothing; only return an exit status.
The long-named options can be introduced with `+' as well as `--',
for compatibility with previous releases. Eventually support for `+'
will be removed, because it is incompatible with the POSIX.2 standard.
