>Release: -current according to sup as of 11 Dec 1995
>Environment:
Tested on Sun-3/150, believed present on all.
>Description:
Due to a reversed test, stty -echo echonl (which is supposed to
echo just newlines), instead echoes everything _but_ newlines.
>How-To-Repeat:
Noticed by code inspection, but it's easy to verify:
% /bin/stty -echo echonl ; cat > /dev/null
Type and notice that everything but newlines echoes.
Then check termios(4) and see that ECHONL is commented as
"echo NL even if ECHO is off", and that the associated text
says "If ECHONL and ICANON are set, the `\n' character echoes
even if ECHO is not set.".
>Fix:
Fix the test in ttyecho. Untested diff:
