Manual page for STTY_FROM_DEFAULTS(1)

stty_from_defaults - set terminal editing characters from the defaults database

SYNOPSIS

stty_from_defaults

AVAILABILITY

This command is available with the [a manual with the abbreviation SVBG] software installation option. Refer to [a manual with the abbreviation INSTALL] for information on how to install optional software.

DESCRIPTION

stty_from_defaults is a utility provided with the SunView environment.

stty_from_defaults sets the three editing characters (to erase a character, erase a word, and kill a line) according to the choices in your defaults database. It does not set any other tty options. If you run stty.1v in your .login or rc.local files, you may want to run stty_from_defaults immediately after it. This will override any settings of sttyerase, sttywerase, or sttykill, so that you will have the same character-editing behavior with SunView application programs.

To specify the editing characters stty_from_defaults will set, run defaultsedit.1 and select the "Text" category. The editing characters are called Edit_back_char, Edit_back_word, and Edit_back_line. Type the value you want to the right of each item. To specify CTRL-X, type `X'-- that is, the three characters `\', `^', and `X'. To specify DEL, type `?'.

If you do not specify your own values, the default values are DEL, CTRL-W, and CTRL-U, respectively.
