What were you trying to do?
Start up codecenter.
What's wrong:
About half the time I try to start up xcodecenter,
it brings up a separate white window with the
message:
Can't open /dev/pts/3: Device busy
Failed to set /dev/pts/3 as our controlling tty!
in it. I can use this window to type commands,
but I would prefer if it were consistent and
allowed me to type in the main window.
All the time.
There is probably some sort of race condition
going on here.
What should have happened:
If it needs a pseudo-tty, it should get one.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
