forkpty(3) bindings for node.js. This allows you to fork processes with pseudo terminal file descriptors. It returns a terminal object which allows reads and writes.

This is useful for:

• Writing a terminal emulator.
• Getting certain programs to think you're a terminal. This is useful if you need a program to send you control sequences.

var pty = require('pty.js');
var term = pty.spawn('bash', [], {
  name: 'xterm-color',
  cols: 80,
  rows: 30,
  cwd: process.env.HOME,
  env: process.env
});
term.on('data', function(data) {
  console.log(data);
});
term.write('ls\r');
term.resize(100, 40);
term.write('ls /\r');
console.log(term.process);

• Add tcsetattr(3), tcgetattr(3).
• Add a way of determining the current foreground job for platforms other than Linux and OSX/Darwin.
