process <-
use_tty: boolConnect the process by means of a pseudo-tty (@on)
or two pipes (@off).
Using a pseudo-tty is necessary for many interactive processes as they
will not flush their output when they are not connected to a terminal.
Processes designed to be used by other processes generally may be
connected through pipes.
When a process is connected by means of a tty, the tty might perform
input and output translations for the process. Notably
control-characters send to the process will be translated as usual.
Pipes to not do any translations.
Defaults: @on
