Ah, I see.

Yeah, that seems like it should be reasonable, i.e. more or less like what
I'd figured it would do if it didn't have all these different backends.

However, I think the test you probably want is !S_ISCHR.
I believe that /proc/ugdb as is stats as S_ISREG, not S_ISFIFO.
Actually, better yet, just make it !isatty (fd).
Another pseudodevice that also behaves more like a socket than
like a tty might be S_ISCHR, but only a tty isatty.


Thanks,
