I can launch another terminal window from inside a C++ program, and I can open streams to other ttys. What I am having trouble with is trying to find a way to suppress the shell from prompting and capturing the tty number.

Does anyone have an elegent way to capture the TTY from xterm and supress the printing of the initial shell promt.
