I have ttyctl -f, not because I'm terribly clever, but because it came
from a sample somewhere in a zsh distribution. I do see that stty may not be the best solution in some cases, e.g., remote logins may need ^?, while local logins may need ^h, or v.v. To me it is better to detect the source and use stty. The function solution to me is a bit too brittle. You can make a reasonable argument for either solution.

I suspect most users haven't got the tty frozen. pws ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
