What is the difference between /dev/sio1, /dev/tty01 and /dev/tty1. Furthermore, how can I set XON/XOFF using the stty comand? ( stty tandem > /dev/[sio1,tty01] did not enable software flow control but it did set the flag. ) I know that tctl -line 1 insync works great, BUT HOW DO I DO THE SAME THING USING BSD COMMANDS?????? RF. --------------------------------------------------------- In the printcap file you can use XC and XS to clear and set the LOCAL MODE bits, and FC and FS to clear and set the SG_FLAGS as documented in the MAN pages section 4 for TTY. These flag bits control the tty interface. The ^Q/^S control mode (same as -insynch) is set by the LOCAL MODE bits. Hope this helps more than it confuses...
