Specifying Terminal Characteristics With the stty Command
The stty command sets or reports on terminal I/O characteristics for the device that provides its
standard input information. For more information about the stty command, refer to the stty(1)
reference page either online or in the Open System Services Shell and Utilities Reference Manual.
Without flags or arguments, stty reports the settings of certain characteristics, usually those that
differ from implementation-defined defaults. Otherwise, stty modifies the terminal state according
to the specified arguments. Some combinations of arguments are mutually exclusive on some
terminal types.
An stty command can be added to a user’s .profile script (see
) to
automatically set options when the user runs osh. The following is an example of a simple stty
command:
stty erase '^h'
where:
Changes the Character-Delete character to '^h' (Ctrl-h). The default Character-Delete
character is the pound sign (#). Most terminals transmit a '^h' when the Backspace key
is pressed.
erase '^h'
The following flags can be specified with the stty command:
Explanation
Flag
Writes to the standard output file all the current settings for the terminal.
-a
Specifies an alternative terminal or tty device.
-f special_device
Writes to the standard output file the current settings in an unspecified form
that can be used as input arguments to another stty command on the same
system.
-g
Modifying Your Shell Environment
You can change many of the shell environment variables by modifying the .profile file in your
home directory. See
, for more information on changing shell variables.
Managing the OSS Environment
System administration for the OSS environment is done primarily from the Guardian environment
and will be less familiar to administrators experienced with UNIX systems than to those experienced
with the Safeguard system.
Many system administration operations are performed by the system administrator through the
Safeguard system, running in the Guardian environment. However, once a user has been added
to the OSS system, some operations on the account are done through the OSS environment.
For more details on system administration, refer to Open System Services Management and
Operations Guide, Safeguard Administrator’s Manual, Safeguard Reference Manual, and TACL
Reference Manual.
