40.In unistd.h
41.Ft int
42.Fn tcsetpgrp "int fd" "pid_t pgrp_id"
43.Sh DESCRIPTION
44If the process has a controlling terminal, the
45.Fn tcsetpgrp
46function sets the foreground process group ID associated with the
47terminal device to
48.Fa pgrp_id .
49The terminal device associated with
50.Fa fd
51must be the controlling terminal of the calling process and the
52controlling terminal must be currently associated with the session
53of the calling process.
54The value of
55.Fa pgrp_id
56must be the same as the process group ID of a process in the same
57session as the calling process.
58.Sh RETURN VALUES
59.Rv -std tcsetpgrp
60.Sh ERRORS
61The
62.Fn tcsetpgrp
63function will fail if:

72was specified.
73.It Bq Er ENOTTY
74The calling process does not have a controlling terminal, or the file
