stty()                 COHERENT System Call                stty()




Set terminal modes

#iinncclluuddee <ssggttttyy.hh>
iinntt ssttttyy(_f_d, _s_g_p)
iinntt _f_d;
ssttrruucctt ssggttttyybb *_s_g_p;

The COHERENT system  call ssttttyy sets a terminal's attributes.  See
the  Lexicon  article   for  ssttttyy  for  information  on  terminal
attributes and their legal values.

***** Example *****

This example  demonstrates both ssttttyy  and ggttttyy. It  sets terminal
input to  read one  character at  a time (that  is, it  reads the
terminal in  ``raw'' form).  When  you type `q',  it restores the
terminal to its  previous settings, and exits.  For an additional
example, see the ppiippee Lexicon article.


#include <sgtty.h>



main()
{
     struct sgttyb os, ns;
     char buff;



     printf("Waiting for q\n");
     gtty(1, &os);     /* save old state */
     ns = os;          /* get base of new state */
     ns.sg_flags |= RAW;/* prevent <ctl-c> from working */
     ns.sg_flags &= ~(ECHO|CRMOD);/* no echo for now... */
     stty(1, &ns);     /* set mode */



     do {
          buff = getchar();/* wait for the keyboard */
     } while(buff != 'q');



     stty(1, &os);  /* reset mode */
}
