The POSIX man page for isatty is at
 http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/functions/isatty.html
I haven't tested it on cygwin.

Doesn't seem to work on my system:

# man isatty
No manual entry for isatty
#

I have cygwin 1.3.12-4 installed, as
well as cygwin-doc 1.1-2.  I also have a newlib-man 20020801.  My
/usr/include/sys/unistd.h contains a prototype for isatty.
Am I missing something else?
	Igor
P.S. The above are only the packages I've considered relevant.  I can
provide a full output of cygcheck if needed.

Yes, I've seen it before (thanks for the link, anyway), and I also have
access to another system which has that man page.  I was just wondering
what I need to do to make that man page available on my cygwin
installation as well.
