Hi Net,
The question I have is:
Is there a way to get the terminal speed from a (sh or csh) script?
I used to be able to do the following in a Bourne shell script:
speed=`stty speed`
and got the terminal speed assigned to variable speed. As various OS
gets updated (e.g. Ultrix 3.1 and SUN OS 4.0.3), this won't work anymore
because all stty outputs are being sent to stderr, not stdout, thus no
piping or redirection is possible. Is there any similar commands that can
get terminal speed inside a shell script?
Andy
