         /tit'ee/ ({ITS} pronunciation, but some {Unix}

        2. (Especially {Unix}) Any terminal at all; sometimes used to
        refer to the particular terminal controlling a given job (it
        is also the name of a Unix command which outputs the name of
        the current controlling terminal).
     
        3. ({Unix}) Any {serial port}, whether or not the device
        connected to it is a terminal; so called because under Unix
        such devices have names of the form tty*.  Ambiguity between
        senses 2 and 3 is common but seldom bothersome.
