First off:
	If you are working with a C program you should not use the
  	stty(1) command to set the terminal characteristics.  Instead use
	the ioctl(2) system call with the appropriate parameters that are
	defined on the termio(7) manual page.  

Second:
	When you do make changes to the terminal characteristics make sure
	you do the following:

		save the current settings 
		make your changes
	
		and later, just before you exit, reset the termina to the
		original settings

It won't matter what shell you use since the stty command is not a "built-in"
in any of the shells listed.  

The  answer to your question is to RTFM (especially the stty(1) and termio(7)
manual pages).  stty -icanon should do what you want.
