[feature request] fool-tty shared object or command line tool

[Whonix]

feature request:

fool-tty [application] - fools application into detecting being run
inside a tty

I am not a C coder, but at least a shared object looks easy to implement.

echo "int isatty(int fd) { return 1; }" | gcc -O2 -fpic -shared -ldl -o
"fool-tty.so" -xc -

usage:

LD_PRELOAD+=" fool-tty.so"

LD_PRELOAD="$LD_PRELOAD" apt-get "$@" 2>&1 | tee -a "$logfile"

use case:

python -c 'import pty, sys; pty.spawn(sys.argv[1:])' \
   | apt-get "$@" 2>&1 \
   | tee -a "$logfile"

Could you ship such a command line tool or shared object for LD_PRELOAD
with core-utils please?
