+\indexii{\POSIX}{I/O control}
+\indexii{tty}{I/O control}
+
+
+This module provides an interface to the \POSIX{} calls for tty I/O
+control.  For a complete description of these calls, see the \POSIX{} or
+\UNIX{} manual pages.  It is only available for those \UNIX{} versions
+that support \POSIX{} \emph{termios} style tty I/O control (and then
+only if configured at installation time).
+
+All functions in this module take a file descriptor \var{fd} as their
+first argument.  This can be an integer file descriptor, such as
+returned by \code{sys.stdin.fileno()}, or a file object, such as
+\code{sys.stdin} itself.
+
+This module also defines all the constants needed to work with the
+functions provided here; these have the same name as their
+counterparts in C.  Please refer to your system documentation for more
+information on using these terminal control interfaces.
+
+The module defines the following functions:
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{tcgetattr}{fd}
+Return a list containing the tty attributes for file descriptor
+\var{fd}, as follows: \code{[}\var{iflag}, \var{oflag}, \var{cflag},
+\var{lflag}, \var{ispeed}, \var{ospeed}, \var{cc}\code{]} where
+\var{cc} is a list of the tty special characters (each a string of
+length 1, except the items with indices \constant{VMIN} and
+\constant{VTIME}, which are integers when these fields are
+defined).  The interpretation of the flags and the speeds as well as
+the indexing in the \var{cc} array must be done using the symbolic
+constants defined in the \module{termios}
+module.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{tcsetattr}{fd, when, attributes}
+Set the tty attributes for file descriptor \var{fd} from the
+\var{attributes}, which is a list like the one returned by
+\function{tcgetattr()}.  The \var{when} argument determines when the
+attributes are changed: \constant{TCSANOW} to change immediately,
+\constant{TCSADRAIN} to change after transmitting all queued output,
+or \constant{TCSAFLUSH} to change after transmitting all queued
+output and discarding all queued input.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{tcsendbreak}{fd, duration}
+Send a break on file descriptor \var{fd}.  A zero \var{duration} sends
+a break for 0.25--0.5 seconds; a nonzero \var{duration} has a system
+dependent meaning.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{tcdrain}{fd}
+Wait until all output written to file descriptor \var{fd} has been
+transmitted.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{tcflush}{fd, queue}
+Discard queued data on file descriptor \var{fd}.  The \var{queue}
+selector specifies which queue: \constant{TCIFLUSH} for the input
+queue, \constant{TCOFLUSH} for the output queue, or
+\constant{TCIOFLUSH} for both queues.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{tcflow}{fd, action}
+Suspend or resume input or output on file descriptor \var{fd}.  The
+\var{action} argument can be \constant{TCOOFF} to suspend output,
+\constant{TCOON} to restart output, \constant{TCIOFF} to suspend
+input, or \constant{TCION} to restart input.
+\end{funcdesc}

+\subsection{Example}
+\nodename{termios Example}
+
+Here's a function that prompts for a password with echoing turned
+off.  Note the technique using a separate \function{tcgetattr()} call
+and a \keyword{try} ... \keyword{finally} statement to ensure that the
+old tty attributes are restored exactly no matter what happens:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+def getpass(prompt = "Password: "):
+    import termios, sys
+    fd = sys.stdin.fileno()
+    old = termios.tcgetattr(fd)
+    new = termios.tcgetattr(fd)
+    new[3] = new[3] & ~termios.ECHO          # lflags
+    try:
+        termios.tcsetattr(fd, termios.TCSADRAIN, new)
+        passwd = raw_input(prompt)
+    finally:
+        termios.tcsetattr(fd, termios.TCSADRAIN, old)
+    return passwd
+\end{verbatim}
