>Subject: What happens to terminal settings on last close? The settings for some terminal devices (cy, dgb, si, sio) but not others (sc, pcvt, rc, ity) are reset to defaults on first open. The defaults are programmed into the corresponding initial state devices. See sio.4. >This is different from the standard BSD behaviour, which leaves the >terminal flags the way they are on the last close, but it's the same >as System V behaviour. Is it intentional or accidental? What do you >think it should do? It's intentional. It took a day or two to program and years to decide/ agree on the best approach. Bruce
