# tty.h The TTY is a virtual device, that acts as a text IO layer. It prints keyboard input and process output to the screen. The keyboard input can be directed to a processes stdin and the processes stdout can be printed to the screen.

This will be automatically called when writing into the ttys _input pipe_. # `tty_write(string)` - function (uint32_t) Renders the text from **_string_** onto the screen. This also writes **_string_** into the ttys _output pipe_. # `g_tty` - global variable This is the systems TTY. Currently, there is no support planned for multiple ttys.
