I was on a 'screen' window on one host, doing an rlogin to the SUN. I was
not in a window as far as the Sun was concerned, although rlogin was
probably using a socket. This saved me the trouble of being physically at
the Sun. Are you saying this is stll justified behavior for the Sun? Rlogin-
ing to a Mac A/UX, or even back to my host, does not cause problems w/stty.

The previously posted solutions of

speed=`stty speed 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3`

or

speed=`/usr/5bin/stty speed`

work.
