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