     ENABLE(C)                XENIX System V                 ENABLE(C)



     Name
          enable - Turns on terminals and line printers.

     Syntax
          enable tty ...
          enable printers

     Description
          For terminals this program manipulates the /etc/ttys file
          and signals init to allow logins on a particular terminal.

          For line printers, enable activates the named printers and
          enables them to print requests taken by lp(C).  Use
          lpstat(C) to find the status of the printers.

     Examples
          A simple command to enable tty01 follows:

               enable tty01

     Files
          /dev/tty*

          /etc/ttys

          /usr/spool/lp/*
