BSD Terminal Modes
The usual way to get and set terminal modes is with the functions described
in Terminal Modes. However, on some systems you can use the
BSD-derived functions in this section to do some of the same thing. On
many systems, these functions do not exist. Even with the GNU C library,
the functions simply fail with errno
= ENOSYS
with many
kernels, including Linux.
The symbols used in this section are declared in sgtty.h
.
This structure is an input or output parameter list for gtty and
stty .
char sg_ispeed
- Line speed for input
char sg_ospeed
- Line speed for output
char sg_erase
- Erase character
char sg_kill
- Kill character
int sg_flags
- Various flags

of the terminal which is open with file descriptor filedes.
