NAME
stty - (BSD) set the options for a terminal
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/stty [-a] [-g] [-h] [options]
DESCRIPTION
Stty sets certain I/O options on the current terminal. With no argument, it reports the current settings of selected options; the -a flag causes it to report all options. With the -g flag, stty prints all settings in a form that can be passed to it again to restore the current settings. The -h flag prints a table of all control characters in addition to the output given with -a .

Special option values recognized only if given as single argument are:

12 all Print the normal output followed by a control character table.

12 everything Same as -h .

12 speed Print the speed rate.

12 size Print the rows and columns of the terminal.

If either -g , speed or size are given, stty uses /dev/tty to get the terminal settings, otherwise, the standard output is used.

The option strings are selected from the following set; where an option is shown prefixed by `[-]', it can be negated as described in the text.

Control modes:

[-]parenb enable (disable) parity bits
[-]parodd select odd (even) parity
cs5 cs6 cs7 cs8 set character size
[-]cstopb use two (one) stop bits per character
[-]clocal line has (no) modem control
[-]hupcl
hang up (do not hang up) dataphone on last close
[-]hup same as hupcl
0 hang up phone line immediately
50 75 110 134 150 200 300 600 1200 1800 2400 4800 9600
19200 38400 exta extb
Set terminal baud rate to the number given, if possible
(not all terminals support all rates).

Input modes:

[-]ignbrk ignore (respect) break character
[-]brkint (do not) send interrupt on break
[-]ignpar (do not) ignore parity errors
[-]parmrk (do not) mark parity errors
[-]inpck enable (disable) parity checking
[-]istrip
(do not) strip characters to 7 bits
[-]inlcr (do not) map NL to CR
[-]igncr (do not) ignore CR
[-]icrnl (do not) map CR to NL
[-]iuclc (do not) map upper to lower case
[-]ixon enable start/stop control
[-]ixany any character (DC1 only) restarts output
[-]decctlq same as -ixany
[-]ixoff
(do not) send start/stop characters
when the input queue is nearly full
[-]tandem same as ixoff
[-]imaxbel
(do not) ring the bell when running out of input buffers
[-]iutf8 (do not) handle input as UTF-8

Output modes:

[-]opost enable (disable) output processing
[-]olcuc (do not) map upper to lower case
[-]onlcr (do not) map NL to CR
[-]onocr (do not) ignore CR
[-]onlret NL is (not) return
[-]ofill (do not) use fill characters
[-]ofdel fill character is DEL (NUL)
cr0 cr1 cr2 cr3
select style of delay for carriage return (see termio(3))
nl0 nl1 nl2 nl3 select style of delay for linefeed
tab0 tab1 tab2 tab3
select style of delay for tab
ff0 ff1 select style of delay for form feed
bs0 bs1 select style of delay for backspace
vt0 bt1 select style of delay for vertical tab

Local modes:

[-]isig
enable (disable) intr, quit, and susp processing
[-]icanon enable (disable) erase and kill processing
[-]cbreak same as -icanon
[-]xcase (no) canonical case presentation
[-]echo (do not) echo every character typed
[-]echoe (do not) echo erase character as `^H ^H'
[-]crterase same as echoe
[-]echok (do not) echo NL after kill character
[-]lfkc same as echok
[-]echonl (do not) echo NL regardless of echo
[-]noflsh (do not) flush after intr, quit, and susp
[-]tostop send SIGTTOU for background output
[-]echoctl
(no) visual representation of control characters
[-]ctlecho same as echoctl
[-]echoprt (do not) echo erased characters
[-]prterase same as echoprt
[-]echoke
(do not) print `^H ^H' sequences at line erase
[-]crtkill same as echoke
[-]flusho output is (not) flushed
[-]pendin (do not) retype pending input
[-]iexten
enable (disable) extended control characters

Control characters:

intr c set intr character to c.
quit c set quit character to c.
erase c set erase character to c.
kill c set kill character to c.
eof c set eof character to c.
eol c set eol character to c.
eol2 c set eol2 character to c.
swtch c set swtch character to c.
start c set start character to c.
stop c set stop character to c.
susp c set susp character to c.
dsusp c set dsusp character to c.
rprnt c set rprnt character to c.
flush c set flush character to c.
werase c set werase character to c.
lnext c set lnext character to c.

A control character may be either given as a literal character, or as `^c' for ASCII control characters CTRL-c; the special values `^-' and `undef' disable the control function. Multibyte characters cannot be used as control characters; trying to do so will result in the control character set to the first byte of the multibyte character sequence, which has the undesired effect of applying the control function to more characters than the one supplied.

Combination modes et cetera:

[-]raw
(no) raw mode input
(i.\|e. no erase, kill, interrupt, quit, EOT; parity bit passed back)
cooked same as -raw
sane reset all values to defaults
[-]cbreak
make each character available to read(2)
as received; no erase and kill
(make characters available to read
only when newline is received)
[-]oddp allow (disallow) odd parity
[-]evenp allow (disallow) even parity
[-]nl
accept only new-line to end lines
(allow carriage return for new-line,
and output CR-LF for carriage return or new-line)
[-]lcase
(do not) map upper case to lower case
[-]LCASE
same as lcase
[-]tabs
(do not) replace tabs by spaces when printing
nul-fill use NUL to fill output
