NAME
termio - System V terminal driver interface
DESCRIPTION
termio is the name of the old System V terminal driver interface.
This interface defined a termio structure used to store terminal
settings, and a range of ioctl(2) operations to get and set
terminal attributes.
The termio interface is now obsolete: POSIX.1-1990 standardized a
modified version of this interface, under the name termios. The
POSIX.1 data structure differs slightly from the System V
version, and POSIX.1 defined a suite of functions to replace the
various ioctl(2) operations that existed in System V. (This was
done because ioctl(2) was unstandardized, and its variadic third
argument does not allow argument type checking.)
If you're looking for a page called "termio", then you can
probably find most of the information that you seek in either
termios(3) or ioctl_tty(2).
