        SYNTAX

        attstty [ -a ] [ -g ] [ options ]


        DESCRIPTION

        att_stty is the AT & T version of the stty command.  It can be
        invoked directly using att_stty or indirectly using stty while in
        line discipline 0.

        att_stty sets certain terminal I/O options for the device that is
        the current standard input; without arguments, it reports the
        settings of certain options.

        In this report, if a character is preceded by a caret (^), then
        the value of that option is the corresponding CTRL character
        (e.g., ``^h'' is CTRL-h ; in this case, recall that CTRL-h is the
        same as the ``back-space'' key.) The sequence ``^''' means that
        an option has a null value.  For example, normally attstty -a
        will report that the value of swtch is ``^'''; however, if shl
        (1) has been invoked, attstty -a will have the value ``^z''.

        -a   reports all of the option settings;

        -g   reports current settings in a form that can be used as an
             argument to another att_stty command.

        Options in the combination mode are implemented using options in
        the previous mode groups.  The modes are discussed in the
        following paragraphs.  Note that many combinations of options
        make no sense, but no sanity checking is performed.  The options
        are selected from the following:

                  use fill characters (use timing) for delays.

           Local Modes

        isig (-isig)
                  enable (disable) the checking of characters against the
                  special control characters INTR, QUIT, and SWTCH.
        icanon (-icanon)

               Licensed material--property of copyright holder(s)





                                                              attstty(1)



                  echo back (do not echo back) every character typed.
        echoe (-echoe)
                  echo (do not echo) ERASE character as a backspace-
                  space-backspace string.  Note: this mode will erase the
                  ERASEed character on many CRT terminals; however, it
                  does not keep track of column position and, as a
                  result, may be confusing on escaped characters, tabs,
                  and backspaces.
        echok (-echok)
                  echo (do not echo) NL after KILL character.
        lfkc (-lfkc)
                  the same as echok (-echok); obsolete.
        echonl (-echonl)
                  echo (do not echo) NL.
        noflsh (-noflsh)
                  disable (enable) flush after INTR, QUIT, or SWTCH.



           Control Assignments

        control-character c
                  set control-character to c, where control-character is
                  erase, kill, intr, quit, swtch, eof, min, or time (min
                  and time are used with -icanon; see termio(7)).  The
                  values for min and time are stored in the locations
                  used for eof and eol, respectively.  A change in min
                  will be printed as a change in eof.  Similarly, a
                  change in time will be printed as change in eol.  If c
                  is preceded by a (escaped from the shell) caret (^),
                  then the value used is the corresponding CTRL character
                  (e.g., ``^d'' is a CTRL-d); ``^?'' is interpreted as
                  DEL and ``^-'' is interpreted as undefined.
        line i    set line discipline to i (0 < i < 127 ).  DG/UX
                  implements only 0 and 1.  Other numbers will return an
                  error.



           Combination Modes

        evenp or parity
                  enable parenb and cs7.
        oddp      enable parenb, cs7, and parodd.
        -parity, -evenp, or -oddp
                  disable parenb, and set cs8.
        raw (-raw or cooked)
                  enable (disable) raw input and output (no ERASE, KILL,
                  INTR, QUIT, SWTCH, EOT, or output post processing).
        nl (-nl)  unset (set) icrnl, onlcr.  In addition -nl unsets
                  inlcr, igncr, ocrnl, and onlret.

        lcase (-lcase)
                  set (unset) xcase, iuclc, and olcuc.
        LCASE (-LCASE)
                  same as lcase (-lcase).
        tabs (-tabs or tab3)
                  preserve (expand to spaces) tabs when printing.
        ek        reset ERASE and KILL characters back to normal # and @.
        sane      resets all modes to some reasonable values.
        term      set all modes suitable for the terminal type term,
                  where term is one of tty33, tty37, vt05, tn300, ti700,
                  or tek.
