[olug] stty?

[Vincent]

This sets the terminal's behavior and environment.

A common manual use is to change the default row and column settings in a terminal.
Let's say you're in a serial console and want more room on the screen than your default (25x80).
Just do this:
stty rows 50 cols 120; LINES=50; COLUMNS=120

You can also have a lot of fun by dropping erase, kill, echo or quit stty commands into someone else's .bashrc file.  :)
