NAME
stty - set the options for a terminalSYNOPSIS
stty [ -a| -g]
stty operands
DESCRIPTION
The stty utility shall set or report on terminal I/O characteristics for the device that is its standard input. Without options or operands specified, it shall report the settings of certain characteristics, usually those that differ from implementation-defined defaults. Otherwise, it shall modify the terminal state according to the specified operands. Detailed information about the modes listed in the first five groups below are described in the Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 11, General Terminal Interface. Operands in the Combination Modes group (see Combination Modes ) are implemented using operands in the previous groups. Some combinations of operands are mutually-exclusive on some terminal types; the results of using such combinations are unspecified.
Typical implementations of this utility require a communications line configured to use the termios interface defined in the System Interfaces volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001. On systems where none of these lines are available, and on lines not currently configured to support the termios interface, some of the operands need not affect terminal characteristics.
OPTIONS
The stty utility shall conform to the Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 12.2, Utility Syntax Guidelines.
The following options shall be supported:
- -a
- Write to standard output all the current settings for the terminal.
- -g
- Write to standard output all the current settings in an unspecified form that can be used as arguments to another invocation of the stty utility on the same system. The form used shall not contain any characters that would require quoting to avoid word expansion by the shell; see Word Expansions .

Special Control Character Assignments
- <control>-character string
-
Set <control>-character to string. If <control>-character is one of the character sequences in the first column of the following table, the corresponding Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 11, General Terminal Interface control character from the second column shall be recognized. This has the effect of setting the corresponding element of the termios c_cc array (see the Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 13, Headers, <termios.h>).

If string is a single character, the control character shall be set to that character. If string is the two-character sequence "^-" or the string undef, the control character shall be set to _POSIX_VDISABLE , if it is in effect for the device; if _POSIX_VDISABLE is not in effect for the device, it shall be treated as an error. In the POSIX locale, if string is a two-character sequence beginning with circumflex ( '^' ), and the second character is one of those listed in the "^c" column of the following table, the control character shall be set to the corresponding character value in the Value column of the table.
^c | Value | ^c | Value | ^c | Value | |||

STDIN
Although no input is read from standard input, standard input shall be used to get the current terminal I/O characteristics and to set new terminal I/O characteristics.
INPUT FILES
None.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables shall affect the execution of stty:
- LANG
- Provide a default value for the internationalization variables that are unset or null. (See the Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 8.2, Internationalization Variables for the precedence of internationalization variables used to determine the values of locale categories.)
- LC_ALL
- If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the other internationalization variables.
- LC_CTYPE
- This variable determines the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments) and which characters are in the class print.
- LC_MESSAGES
- Determine the locale that should be used to affect the format and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error.
- NLSPATH
- Determine the location of message catalogs for the processing of LC_MESSAGES .
ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS
Default.
STDOUT
If operands are specified, no output shall be produced.
If the -g option is specified, stty shall write to standard output the current settings in a form that can be used as arguments to another instance of stty on the same system.
If the -a option is specified, all of the information as described in the OPERANDS section shall be written to standard output. Unless otherwise specified, this information shall be written as <space>-separated tokens in an unspecified format, on one or more lines, with an unspecified number of tokens per line. Additional information may be written.
If no options or operands are specified, an unspecified subset of the information written for the -a option shall be written.
If speed information is written as part of the default output, or if the -a option is specified and if the terminal input speed and output speed are the same, the speed information shall be written as follows:
-
"speed %d baud;", <speed>
Otherwise, speeds shall be written as:
-
"ispeed %d baud; ospeed %d baud;", <ispeed>, <ospeed>
In locales other than the POSIX locale, the word baud may be changed to something more appropriate in those locales.
If control characters are written as part of the default output, or if the -a option is specified, control characters shall be written as:
-
"%s = %s;", <control-character name>, <value>
where <value> is either the character, or some visual representation of the character if it is non-printable, or the string undef if the character is disabled.
STDERR
The standard error shall be used only for diagnostic messages.
OUTPUT FILES
None.
EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
None.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values shall be returned:
- 0
- The terminal options were read or set successfully.
- >0
- An error occurred.
CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS
Default.
The following sections are informative.
APPLICATION USAGE
The -g flag is designed to facilitate the saving and restoring of terminal state from the shell level. For example, a program may:
-
saveterm="$(stty -g)" # save terminal state stty (new settings) # set new state ... # ... stty $saveterm # restore terminal state
Since the format is unspecified, the saved value is not portable across systems.
Since the -a format is so loosely specified, scripts that save and restore terminal settings should use the -g option.
EXAMPLES
None.
RATIONALE
The original stty description was taken directly from System V and reflected the System V terminal driver termio. It has been modified to correspond to the terminal driver termios.
Output modes are specified only for XSI-conformant systems. All implementations are expected to provide stty operands corresponding to all of the output modes they support.
The stty utility is primarily used to tailor the user interface of the terminal, such as selecting the preferred ERASE and KILL characters. As an application programming utility, stty can be used within shell scripts to alter the terminal settings for the duration of the script.
The termios section states that individual disabling of control characters is possible through the option _POSIX_VDISABLE. If enabled, two conventions currently exist for specifying this: System V uses "^-" , and BSD uses undef. Both are accepted by stty in this volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001. The other BSD convention of using the letter 'u' was rejected because it conflicts with the actual letter 'u' , which is an acceptable value for a control character.
Early proposals did not specify the mapping of "^c" to control characters because the control characters were not specified in the POSIX locale character set description file requirements. The control character set is now specified in the Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 3, Definitions so the historical mapping is specified. Note that although the mapping corresponds to control-character key assignments on many terminals that use the ISO/IEC 646:1991 standard (or ASCII) character encodings, the mapping specified here is to the control characters, not their keyboard encodings.
Since termios supports separate speeds for input and output, two new options were added to specify each distinctly.
Some historical implementations use standard input to get and set terminal characteristics; others use standard output. Since input from a login TTY is usually restricted to the owner while output to a TTY is frequently open to anyone, using standard input provides fewer chances of accidentally (or maliciously) altering the terminal settings of other users. Using standard input also allows stty -a and stty -g output to be redirected for later use. Therefore, usage of standard input is required by this volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None.
