aassyymmkkddeevv -- Command

Create nodes for asynchronous devices
/ccoonnff/aassyymmkkddeevv [-uu] [_a_s_y_n_c__f_i_l_e [_o_u_t_f_i_l_e]]

The command aassyymmkkddeevv reads _a_s_y_n_c__f_i_l_e, questions the user about her system,
and writes  a shell script into  _o_u_t_f_i_l_e. When run, the  script creates the
proper nodes (up to 256 of them) for the asynchronous devices in /ddeevv.

If  you name  no _a_s_y_n_c__f_i_l_e,  aassyymmkkddeevv /ddeevv/ddeeffaauulltt/aassyynncc.  If you  name no
_o_u_t_f_i_l_e, it writes its script into aassyy_mmkknnoodd.

aassyymmkkddeevv  asks  about  each  asynchronous  channel  for  which  a  port  is
configured.  It asks  for the basic device name (e.g.,  aassyy0000 or ccoomm00), and
then asks  which of  the eight possible  port configurations will  be used.
The options are:

ll or rr  Local or remote.

ii or pp  Interrupt-driven or polled.

ff or nn  RTS-CTS flow control or no hardware flow control.

For  details of  what the  options mean,  see the  Lexicon article  for the
device driver aassyy.

Suffix letters  ``rlipnf'' respectively indicate  remote, local, interrupt,
polled,  no-flow,  and flow-control  configurations,  as  explained in  the
Lexicon article for aassyy.

For each question, type the value  that applies or press <EEnntteerr>, to select
the default displayed in brackets.  The option -uu suppresses prompts.
