initviocons


Terminal Initialization, e.g. for the iSeries Virtual Console


System/Console

Initviocons can be used on the iSeries platform to recognize terminal features of a telnet client that is connected to the virtual console (similar to a serial console). It probes the terminal via escape sequences to find out the screen size and a suitable TERM type. It also does special initialization if possible (for example, carriage return suppression for Windows telnet clients). On the iSeries platform, it additionally checks for the presence of more than one terminal connected on the same line. See /etc/profile for a usage example.
