Georg Brandl <georg at python.org> added the comment:
ioctl(2) usually has "see also" entries that list the available ioctls, such as ioctl_list on linux.
If you want to link to examples like getting console size, the manpage isn't very helpful either, since you have to figure out how exactly to call ioctl. Linking to a pertinent recipe e.g. in the Cookbook, or including the example right there makes much more sense.
