No, you need to give up and build "force" only on machines whose operating system supports the operation needed for a process to be able to force characters to be "typed" on another terminal. TIOCSTI is an "ioctl" that takes a character and makes the terminal referred to by the file descriptor argument act as if that character had been typed on it. If you don't have this "ioctl", or something like it, you can't make "force" work. -- Guy Harris {ihnp4, decvax, seismo, decwrl, ...}!sun!guy guy@sun.com (or guy@sun.arpa)
