+The two perl items in this package are an stty shell script and a
 module for setting terminal parameters. to use the Stty.pm module stuff it in
 your $PERL_LIB_DIR/site_perl/IO directory. In your scripts do:

+This has not been tailored to the IO::File stuff but will work with it as
 indicated. Before you go futzing with term parameters it's a good idea to grab
 the current settings and restore them when you finish.

-       Example:
-
-     use IO::Stty;
-     $old_mode=IO::Stty::stty(\*STDIN,'-g');
-     # Turn off echoing.
-     IO::Stty::stty(\*STDIN,'-echo');
-     # Do whatever.. grab input maybe?
-     $read_password = <>;
-     # Now restore the old mode.
-     IO::Stty::stty(\*STDIN,$old_mode);
-     # What settings do we have anyway?
-     print IO::Stty::stty(\*STDIN,'-a');

-     This is use at your own risk software. Do anything you want with it except
-blame me for it blowing up your machine because it's full of bugs.
-     The file stty.txt indicates what functions are supported. Standard POSIX
-stuff. If any of the settings are wrong and you actually know what some of
-these extremely arcane settings (like what 'sane' should be in POSIX land)
-really should be, let me know.
