Hi,

I have been using the command stty -echo which is supposed to turn of
displaying characters. But it is not turning off the echoing of typed chars.

Example:

$ stty -echo
$ echo hi
hi
$

Here "echo hi" should not have been printed.
Is this a bug or have I not interpreted the man pages?

Thanks in advance,
Apeksha Godiyal
