It was recently pointed out to me that M-x terminal-emulator will not work
with AViiON 18.57 Emacs. To fix this you should add the following to
site-init.el, or change terminal.el (I'd recommend the former):
(setq te-stty-string "stty -nl echo dec")
The problem is that "stty new" (which is in the default definition) is not
understood by the AT&T line discipline. This is probably also a problem on
other SysV machines. Users who use csh on DG/UX will not have a problem,
since csh uses BSD line dicipline. Users of sh or bash will encounter the
problem.
Does anyone know why the "new" is necessary? After reading the description
"Use new driver (switching flushes typeahead)" in the man page, I'm still
don't see why it is needed.
