You're welcome :-) Sadly, the terms commonly used in Unix and IT in general, like master_fd, slave_fd for openpty() or the SLAVE command of the NNTP protocol, cannot be easily changed. I only changed the terms where better terms could be used and easily replaced. Again, I only modified 7 lines, whereas Python is around 500K lines :-)
