Note that this is nothing to do with C, it's a unix syscall. Also it's not really anything to do with the Lazarus IDE or the LCL, it's an underlying FPC library issue.

I don't think it's implemented. I can see the syscall number in the sources, but you might need to either import clib or user TCSetPGrp() from termios.

If it is implemented - I am not sure it is - it has an fp prefix since a couple of versions, so fpsetpgrp..
[edit] it is implemented, but maybe not for all platforms. I found it at least in /rtl/netwlibc/libc.pp using grep.

I can't imagine you really want to use netware/nlm, btw. But that is the only one that matched: seems tied to netware libc, not C.

Possibly the setgroups() in the "grp" unit is doing the same.

Like some other Unix user and group functions, these are in the "user" package and link to libc.

Where's that package documented? I can't find it in any of the pages cited at https://www.freepascal.org/docs.html

Following through to libc stuff, setgroups() is described as "sets the supplementary group IDs for the calling process" which I suspect is not what OP's looking for.

If I understand the man page clearly, it is a BSD call that was adapted by Linux, but never standarized under POSIX.

So presumably at least one of the popular gettys is used by both Linux and the BSDs, which is why it's in termio.

No it is a netware call. Indeed not standard.

BSD dates from 1993, Netware dates from 1983....Unix relase dates from 1970... That call was introduced by Novell.

And ASCII was introduced by IBM.

I don't care who introduced it: it's supported by Linux and that manpage cites POSIX.1 (with non-standard variations for SysV and BSD).
