I'm quite sure I saw this used somewhere, but I can't find it back.
Thought it might have to do with the encoding, not sure.
Though I can't find many mention of this on google...

No, bash used to set $TTY to /dev/tt/* due to lack of some fonctions in
libroot, but that's it.
OSX sets $TERM_PROGRAM to Apple_Terminal and $TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION to 273.
But that's non standard AFAIK.
