- Does anyone know what a 'wait' union looks like, as in what's used for
- the wait3() call. I'm working on the PLP lp daemon and our wait.h
- doesn't describe it. I've searched through the few books I have on Unix
- programming, but they don't give the layout of the union. I could
- probably fake something to work, but I'd rather know for sure.
-
- I could also use any info anyone has on sgtty stuff. There's an ioctl()
- call in the PLP call that uses TIOCNOTTY (sp?)... it's supposed to
- disconnect the terminal or something like that. You can tell I'm
- somewhat new to the *nix programming environment.

- Thanks.
