3.0.3-test3 and typewriters

[Gene Cohler]

Hi:

   Using 3.0.3-test3 under HPUX 10.20, I often see printed on screen after
executing commands.

% stty: : Not a typewriter

Anyone know how I can not have this ?

   On an unrelated note, anyone know about getting modules in 3.1 to 
  work under hpux ?

Thanks for a great shell.

That's ENOTTY, which some systems describe better as "inappropriate ioctl
for device".  (I once wrote a program that would fail with this error
if its output was actually a tty, with the amusing effect that on some
systems it says "Not a typewriter" if and only if it *is* a typewriter.)

>Anyone know how I can not have this ?

Make sure standard input and output are connected to a tty?
