Could you please explain what "getty" means? For example in the following sentence:
In a nutshell, you need to tell the init process, which is responsible for
process control and initialization, to start a getty process, which is
responsible for reading a login name and starting the login program.

Thanks a lot for your help.
Best regards
Martin
