No, that looks pretty good to me. In my getty (heavily modified), I
have:
if (slowmodem)
{
sleep (slowmodem); /* give modem a chance to wake up */
tcflush (i, TCIFLUSH); /* and throw out any junk */
}
>From the man page:
-S [delay] causes getty to delay <delay> seconds after connection has
been established. This is for use with modems which are
not ready to communicate with the remote site as soon as
they are connected. <delay> may be omitted and defaults to
2.
