Hi,
Thanks, I think that found the issue, however...
an stty -a returns...
[snip]
cchars: discard = ^O; dsusp = ^Y; eof
[snip]
man termios says:
DISCARD
Special character on input and is recognized if the IEXTEN flag
is set. Receipt of this character toggles the flushing of termi-
nal output.
Unfortunately, I can't quite make out where this is set when reading the
various man pages regarding terminals.
In gettytab, I see:
# cflags: CLOCAL | HUPCL | CREAD | CS8
# oflags: OPOST | ONLCR | OXTABS
# iflags: IXOFF | IXON | ICRNL | IGNPAR
# lflags: IEXTEN | ICANON | ISIG | ECHOCTL | ECHO | ECHOK | ECHOE | ECHOKE
#
# The `0' flags don't have input enabled. The `1' flags don't echo.
# (Echoing is done inside getty itself.)
#
IEXTEN being the critter than enables or disables this functionality, and
sys/termios.h has this:
#define IEXTEN 0x00000400 /* enable DISCARD and LNEXT */
However, under the local.9600 setting in gettytab, I don't see a setting
that matches IEXTEN...
local.9600|CLOCAL tty @ 9600 Bd:\
:c0#0x0000c300:c1#0x0000cb00:c2#0x0000cb00:\
:o0#0x00000007:o1#0x00000002:o2#0x00000007:\
:i0#0x00000704:i1#0x00000000:i2#0x00000704:\
:l0#0x000005cf:l1#0x00000000:l2#0x000005cf:\
:sp#9600:
A grep'ing of the gettytab does not return any relevant data.
Am I even barking in the right forest?
Thanks,
Rich.
