+     PHP 5RC2 introduces pty support for systems with Unix98 ptys. This allows
+     your script to interact with applications that expect to be talking to a
+     terminal.  A pty works like a pipe, but is bi-directional, so there is no
+     need to specify a read/write mode.  The example below shows how to use a
+     pty; note that you don't have to have all descriptors talking to a pty.
+     Also note that only one pty is created, even though pty is specified 3
+     times.  In a future version of PHP, it might be possible to do more than
+     just read and write to the pty.
