\subsection isatty-synopsis Synopsis
\fish{synopsis}
isatty [FILE DESCRIPTOR]
\endfish
\subsection isatty-description Description
`isatty` tests if a file descriptor is a tty.
`FILE DESCRIPTOR` may be either the number of a file descriptor, or one of the strings `stdin`, `stdout`, or `stderr`.
If the specified file descriptor is a tty, the exit status of the command is zero. Otherwise, the exit status is non-zero. No messages are printed to standard error.
\subsection isatty-examples Examples
From an interactive shell, the commands below exit with a return value of zero:
\fish
isatty
isatty stdout
isatty 2
echo | isatty 1
\endfish
And these will exit non-zero:
\fish
echo | isatty
isatty 9
isatty stdout > file
isatty 2 2> file
\endfish
|
