+pty is a tool to help debug console programs which take the terminal out of
+canonical mode, by allowing the program being debugged and the debugger to run
+on separate terminal devices.
+
+To use pty, the programmer changes to the terminal device where he or she
+wishes to interact with the program to be debugged, and at the shell
+prompt, runs pty with no arguments.  Pty will print out the filename of the
+slave side of the pseudo-terminal it has opened.  Inside the debugger,
+running in another terminal device, one then redirects the program to be
+debugged's IO to the slave (tty command of gdb).  When you are finished
+using pty, you must manually kill it.  When pty starts it prints out its
+pid.
