This section describes the various terminal attributes that control how input and output are done. The functions, data structures, and symbolic constants are all declared in the header file `termios.h'.
Don't confuse terminal attributes with file attributes. A device special file which is associated with a terminal has file attributes as described in section File Attributes. These are unrelated to the attributes of the terminal device itself, which are discussed in this section.
