.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm stty
|
|
utility sets or reports on terminal
|
|
characteristics for the device that is its standard input.
|
|
If no options or operands are specified, it reports the settings of a subset
|
|
of characteristics as well as additional ones if they differ from their
|
|
default values.
|
|
Otherwise it modifies
|
|
the terminal state according to the specified arguments.
|
|
Some combinations of arguments are mutually
|
|
exclusive on some terminal types.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options are available:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|

|
|
in the traditional
|
|
.Tn BSD
|
|
``all'' and ``everything'' formats.
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
Open and use the terminal named by
|
|
.Ar file
|
|
rather than using standard input. The file is opened
|
|
using the
|
|
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
|
|
flag of
|
|
.Fn open ,
|
|
making it possible to
|
|
set or display settings on a terminal that might otherwise
|
|
block on the open.
|
|
.It Fl g
|
|
Display all the current settings for the terminal to standard output
|
|
in a form that may be used as an argument to a subsequent invocation of
|
|
.Nm stty
|
|
to restore the current terminal state as per
|
|
.St -p1003.2 .
|
|

.Pp
|
|
The following arguments are available to set the terminal
|
|
characteristics:
|
|
.Ss Control Modes:
|
|
.Pp
|
|

|
control is no longer
|
|
asserted.
|
|
.It Cm ispeed Ar number
|
|
Set terminal input baud rate to the
|
|
number given, if possible.
|
|
If the
|
|
input baud rate is set to zero, the
|
|
input baud rate is set to the
|
|
value of the output baud
|
|
rate.
|
|
.It Cm ospeed Ar number
|
|
Set terminal output baud rate to
|
|
the number given, if possible.

on input.

.It Cm ixon Pq Fl ixon
|
|
Enable (disable)
|
|
.Dv START/STOP
|
|
output
|

control.
|
|
Output from the system is
|
|
stopped when the system receives
|
|
.Dv STOP
|
|
and started when the system
|
|
receives

|
|
(currently 255) characters in the input queue. If

.Cm imaxbel
|
|
is set and the input queue limit has been reached,
|
|
subsequent input causes the system to send an ASCII BEL
|
|
character to the output queue (the terminal beeps at you). Otherwise,
|
|
if
|
|
.Cm imaxbel
|
|
is unset and the input queue is full, the next input character causes
|
|
the entire input and output queues to be discarded.

This corresponds to the c_oflag of the termios structure.

.Bl -tag -width Fl

Expand (do not expand) tabs to spaces on output.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Ss Local Modes:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Local mode flags (lflags) affect various and sundry characteristics of terminal
|
|
processing.
|
|
Historically the term "local" pertained to new job control features
|
|
implemented by Jim Kulp on a
|
|
.Tn Pdp 11/70
|
|
at
|
|
.Tn IIASA .
|
|
Later the driver ran on the first
|
|
.Tn VAX
|
|
at Evans Hall, UC Berkeley, where the job control details
|
|
were greatly modified but the structure definitions and names
|
|
remained essentially unchanged.
|
|
The second interpretation of the 'l' in lflag
|
|
is ``line discipline flag'' which corresponds to the
|
|
.Ar c_lflag
|
|
of the
|
|
.Ar termios
|
|
structure.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.It Cm isig Pq Fl isig
|

|
Echo back (do not echo back) every
|
|
character typed.
|
|
.It Cm echoe Pq Fl echoe
|

|

|
|
It also skips the first preceding character in its classification
|
|
(as a convenience since the one preceding character could have been
|
|
erased with simply an
|
|
.Dv ERASE
|
|
character.)
|
|
.It Cm mdmbuf Pq Fl mdmbuf
|
|
If set, flow control output based on condition of Carrier Detect. Otherwise

event the process is waiting on (or the status of the process), the user
|
|
and system times, percent cpu, and current memory usage.

.It Cm extproc Pq Fl extproc

performed by either the terminal hardware or by the remote side connected
|
|
to a pty.
|
|
.It Cm raw Pq Fl raw
|
|
If set, change the modes of the terminal so that no input or output processing

is performed. If unset, change the modes of the terminal to some reasonable
|
|
state that performs input and output processing. Note that since the
|
|
terminal driver no longer has a single
|
|
.Dv RAW
|
|
bit, it is not possible to intuit what flags were set prior to setting
|
|
.Cm raw .
|
|
This means that unsetting
|
|
.Cm raw
|
|
may not put back all the setting that were previously in effect.
|
|
To set the terminal into a raw state and then accurately restore it, the following
|
|
shell code is recommended:
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
