Does anybody know of code for emulating BSD tty control (things like
sgttyb, and all that it does), on a primarily SYSV machine?

Specifically, we've got a pack of silicon graphics 4Ds which are SYSV, 
but with many BSDisms (most notably sockets).  Unfortunately, terminal
ioctls are not emulated, and there are a few software packages that I'd
like to port over. In this, specific case, UW - a windowing package for 
MACs and STs and BSD machines.

I`m thinking of putting something together to emulate as much of the BSDisms
as possible, so that the porting process is not such a pain, but first"

Has anybody attempted/done this before?  If so could I get some pointers
and/or code from you?
	thx.
