setty built-in command for tcsh: Control tty mode changes

Format

setty [-d|-q|-x] [-a] [+|-]mode]

Description

setty controls which tty modes (see the stty command description which contains lists of mode operands, such as echoe and echok) the shell does not allow to change. Without arguments, setty lists the modes in the chosen set which are fixed on (+mode) or off (-mode). The available modes, and thus the display, vary from system to system. With +mode, -mode or mode, fixes mode on or off or removes control from mode in the chosen set. For example, setty +echok echoe fixes echok mode on and allows commands to turn echoe mode on or off, both when the shell is executing commands.

Options

–a
List all tty modes in the chosen set whether or not they are fixed.
[-d|-q|-x]
Tells setty to act on the edit, quote or execute set of tty modes respectively; without -d, -q or -x, execute is used.
