If you are going to let the cat out of the bag, at least get it
right (up to date). There is additional support to run any program, not
just getty, on a terminal line, and support for User process window systems,
a'la' the X window system here at MIT, or the ITC window system at CMU.
Here is an example of one of our /etc/ttys files from here at MIT, in the
new format... In addition, opening a terminal line has been moved from init
to getty to allow use of init as a "superdaemon" to maintain other daemon
programs. These changes have been running here at MIT for some months, and
recently went west to Berkeley.
