+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.BR ctermid ()
+returns a string which is the pathname for the current
+controlling terminal for this process.
+If
+.I s
+is NULL,
+a static buffer is used, otherwise
+.I s
+points to a buffer used to hold the terminal pathname.
+The symbolic constant
+.B L_ctermid
+is the maximum number of characters in the returned pathname.

+.SH HISTORY
+POSIX.1-2001, Svr4.
+.SH BUGS
+The returned pathname may not uniquely identify the controlling
+terminal; it may, for example, be
+.IR /dev/tty .
+.P
+It is not assured that the program can open the terminal.
+.\" in glibc 2.3.x, x >= 4, the glibc headers threw an error
+.\" if ctermid() was given an argument; fixed in glibc 2.4.
