Launch a subprocess in a pseudo terminal (pty), and interact with
both the process and its pty.
Sometimes, piping stdin and stdout is not enough. There might be
a password prompt that doesn't read from stdin, output that changes
when it's going to a pipe rather than a terminal, or curses-style
interfaces that rely on a terminal. If you need to automate these
things, running the process in a pseudo terminal (pty) is the answer.

Convert Python ports to FLAVORS.
Ports using USE_PYTHON=distutils are now flavored. They will
automatically get flavors (py27, py34, py35, py36) depending on what
versions they support.
There is also a USE_PYTHON=flavors for ports that do not use distutils
but need FLAVORS to be set. A USE_PYTHON=noflavors can be set if
using distutils but flavors are not wanted.
A new USE_PYTHON=optsuffix that will add PYTHON_PKGNAMESUFFIX has been
added to cope with Python ports that did not have the Python
PKGNAMEPREFIX but are flavored.
USES=python now also exports a PY_FLAVOR variable that contains the

[NEW] sysutils/py3-ptyprocess: Create Python 3.x version of port
The latest www/py-requests update [1] unbundled its dependencies, now

the need for many new py3-* ports (and their dependencies).
This change creates one of those ports.
