Demonstrates a pecuilar problem whereby it appears a shell session occasionally does not produce an EOF on the pty slave after exit. I'm not sure this is an issue with the implementation of PTY or an OS X issue. It does not appear to be a shell issue per-se as I can produce the failure with bash, zsh, ksh, csh, and tcsh.

Example failures:

Setup

This gist tests various aspects of syslog from Ruby. In order to do so you have to setup syslog first.

Setting up syslog is system-specific and quite variable because of variations like rsyslogd or syslogd-ng. OSX, for example, uses a custom system logger (the apple system logger) that supports the syslog API, but also adds additional stuff like the 'syslog' command line application.
