Creating a hunt sequence
The object of a hunt sequence is to link a range of line speeds.
Entering a BREAK during the baud rate search
causes ttymon to step to the next entry in
the sequence.
The hunt continues until the baud rate of the line matches
the speed of the user's terminal.
For example,
the following sequence of commands adds records with labels
``1200'', ``2400'', ``4800'', and ``9600'' to the
ttydefs file and puts them
in a circular list or hunt sequence.
In the example, the ``nextlabel'' field of
each line is the ``ttylabel'' of the next line.
The ``nextlabel''
field for the last line shown points back to the first
line in the sequence.
sttydefs -a 1200 -n 2400 -i 1200 -f "1200 sane"
sttydefs -a 2400 -n 4800 -i 2400 -f "2400 sane"
sttydefs -a 4800 -n 9600 -i 4800 -f "4800 sane"
sttydefs -a 9600 -n 1200 -i 9600 -f "9600 sane"
The records in the ttydefs file will look like this:
# VERSION=2
1200:1200:1200 sane::2400
2400:2400:2400 sane::4800
4800:4800:4800 sane::9600
9600:9600:9600 sane::1200
