NAME
  utx - UNIX terminal extension pseudo device

SYNOPSIS
  #include <utx/utxdev.h>

DESCRIPTION
  The utx pseudo device provides a communication mechanism between any server
  process and the terminal driver subsystem.  More specifically, this pseudo
  device provides ioctl(2) and other I/O functions used by server daemons and
  kernel functions to communicate with the terminal driver subsystem.

  Currently, the Asian terminal driver is using the utx driver to provide the
  following extended features:

    ·  Kana-Kanji conversion (for Japanese only)

    ·  Software on-demand font loading for user-defined characters

    ·  Software phrase input method

  Refer to atty(7) for more information about special features provided by
