           /etc/utmp file.  This is accomplished by actually scanning
           the file /etc/inittab for the name of the terminal
           associated with the standard input, the standard output, or
           the error output (0, 1 or 2).

      SEE ALSO
           getut(3C), ttyname(3C).

      DIAGNOSTICS
           A value of 0 is returned if an error was encountered while
           searching for the terminal name or if none of the above file
           descriptors is associated with a terminal device.
