ttytype — terminal device to default terminal type mapping
The /etc/ttytype file
associates termcap(5)/terminfo(5) terminal type names
with tty lines. Each line consists of a terminal type,
followed by whitespace, followed by a tty name (a device name
without the /dev/) prefix.
This association is used by the program tset(1) to set the environment
variable TERM to the default
terminal name for the user's current tty.
This facility was designed for a traditional time-sharing environment featuring character-cell terminals hardwired to a UNIX minicomputer. It is little used on modern workstation and personal UNIX systems.
