Line 15: # A remote [[text terminal]]. The communication capabilities usually become reduced to a [[serial line]] or its emulation, possibly with few [[ioctl]]()s as an [[Out-of-band data\|out-of-band]] channel in such cases as [[Telnet]] and [[Secure Shell]]. This is the worst case, because software restrictions hinder the use of capabilities of a remote display device. Under [[Linux kernel\|Linux]] and other [[Unix-like]] systems, a program easily [[graceful degradation\|accommodates]] to any of the three cases because the same interface (namely, [[standard streams]]) controls the display and keyboard~~. Also, [[#Under Unix-like systems\|specialized programming libraries]] help to output the text in a way appropriate to the given display device and interface to it~~. See [[#Windows\|below]] for a comparison to Windows. Many [[#See Also\|TUI programming libraries]] are available to help developers build [[Console Application\|TUI applications]]. == On ANSI-compatible terminals ==
