[ale] ptr example

In case it was not obvious, the reason for the parent was so that the
ttyp0 could communicate via ptyp0 to the tty you are running the program
on.



[cfowler at cfowler tmp]$ tty
/dev/pts/7
[cfowler at cfowler tmp]$ ./pshell 
sh-2.05a$ tty
/dev/ttyp0
sh-2.05a$ exit
exit
[cfowler at cfowler tmp]$
