There is an ioctl call that simulates terminal input which looks like:

	ioctl( d, TIOCSTI, &ch ) 

where d is an open descriptor, and ch is the character to stuff into the 
terminal as if it were typed at the keyboard.  The X package seems to "know"
how to focus keyboard input to xterm windows based on the location of the 
mouse cursor.  My question is:

  What tty name can be used to specify that the character should go the the
  xterm window in which the mouse cursor is located?  /dev/ttyp? and /dev/ttyv0
  obviously focus the input to a specific window regardless of the mouse cursor
  location.
