This is the start of an attempt to add Ptys and Ttys into the IO:: hierarchy. It is based on an earlier Ptty distribution by Nick Ing-Simmons. The main differences are * The Ptty package has been renamed into the IO:: hierarchy and split into two separate packages IO::Tty and IO::Pty * Now uses metaconfig for configuration instead of a home-grown perl script. Hopefully the extra defines needed ontop of perl's config.h can be added into it. The release is only a pre-release to get feedback on the configuration, later releasees will include C library function interfaces and exported constants.
