No!  Wrong direction!  In a System V environment, one would use
"stty ixon -ixany".  Since you appear to be in a Berkeley environment,
you should use "stty dec" or equivalent; what is needed are the "start"
and "stop" characters defined as ^Q and ^S, respectively, and "decctlq"
ON.  If you have software that runs in "raw" mode, it will probably
break since Berkeley raw mode disables flow control; such software
should be changed to honor the original flow control mode setting.
