LCK.. upon enabling a port

[Jean-Pierre Radley]

I use a tty port with its modem for both incoming and outgoing traffic.
Either in a front-end script, like 'poll', or in shell aliases, I insert
'disable ttyXX' and 'enable ttyXX' before and after the real 'uucp' 'cu',
'uucico', 'xcomm', or whatever else I'm using to call out with.

But life would be simpler if 'init' were to create a standard LCK..ttyXX
file. Why doesn't 'init' have a lockfile for any port it's running on,
just like all those call-out programs do?
