I guess I'm more familiar with Unix V 3.2. "386 Xenix", yousay. Whose? Under SCO, tty1A and tty1a are the same port, but the upper case letter is used for a modem control line. stty < /dev/tty1a will give you the settings of /dev/tty1a, if it's alive; if it isn't running anything, then it will not exactly "hang" your terminal, but just sit there doing nothing until you hit BREAK. The stty grammar is strange, because is you don't want to read the settings of tty1a, but rather change them, you still use the '<', not the '>'. stty xon xoff /dev/tty1a would send your current tty's settings to tty1a, assuming there's anything happening there to receive the message. -- Jean-Pierre Radley jpr@jpradley.uucp New York, NY 72160.1341@compuserve.com
