Ttyutils is a set of UNIX terminal tools, including ttyexec, ttylook, ttyadmin, and some extensions.

Ttyexec creates a Pseudo Terminal to execute a command, capture all the output of the command, and transmit the output data to the built-in memory terminal simulator and real terminal. The commands executed through ttyexec and those executed directly do not feel any difference. Through the memory terminal simulator, the administrator can trigger an event under certain conditions. For example, the user wants to start another program B based on the state of program A, but does not want to or cannot modify program, in this case, ttyexec is useful.

Ttyadmin is a management tool that uses the ncurses (3X) window interface to view and control existing ttyexec instances.

Ttylook is similar to the BSD watch (1) program, but there are not many restrictions. It can easily connect to the existing ttyexec instance, view the output of that terminal, or, if the writeable mode is enabled, you can also enter data to that terminal.

Extensions include ttyfeed and ttysnap. They all support the -- help Command Line option.

Ttyutils follows the GPL version 2 authorization protocol release, which means that you have the right to obtain the complete source code while obtaining Ttyutils.

The main target platform of Ttyutils is GNU/Linux, and the development and testing platform is Fedora7. It should also run on other GNU/Linux release systems, and theoretically it can run on operating systems that comply with the UNIX98 specifications. So far, the following operating systems can run ttyutils:

Fedora
AIX 5
