SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     tty [ -l ]	[ -s ]

     -s	  inhibits printing of the terminal path name, allowing	one to test
	  just the exit	code.

		      0	  if standard input is a terminal,
		      1	  otherwise.

     ``not on an active	synchronous line'' if the standard input is not	a
     synchronous terminal and -l is specified.

     specified.
