NAME
     close - device independent close routine

SYNOPSIS
     int close(dev)
     int dev;

DESCRIPTION
     _C_l_o_s_e will disconnect I/O from the device given by _d_e_v. It
     returns SYSERR if _d_e_v is incorrect, or is not opened for
     I/O.  Otherwise, _c_l_o_s_e returns OK.

     Normally tty devices like the console do not have to be
     opened and closed.
