Stty

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Unix stty command is used for changing the settings of a Unix computer terminal. This command is used to change keystrokes, irregular character handling, and more. Stty gives a full set of features that are also available in ncurses for programmers but simplifies it by building it in to a simple-to-use Unix command. Now it is rarely used due to reduced use of command lines and UART/RS-232 serial ports.
