In unix-like systems, typically a program will test whether the output
stream (stdout) is a terminal or not using something like the
"isatty(1)" function (which is a POSIX standard function I believe).
If it's a terminal it will use line-buffering, if not, it will use a
larger fixed buffer size (which is more efficient).
