- Description:
- Libptytty is a small library that offers pseudo-tty management in an
OS-independent way. It was created out of frustration over the many differences
of pty/tty handling in different operating systems for the use inside
"rxvt-unicode".
In addition to offering mere pty/tty management, it also offers session database
support (utmp and optional wtmp/lastlog updates for login shells).
It also supports fork'ing after startup and dropping privileges in the calling
process, so in case the calling process gets compromised by the user starting
the program there is less to gain, as only the helper process runs with
privileges (e.g. setuid/setgid), which reduces the area of attack immensely.
Libptytty is written in C++, but it also offers a C-only API.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
