Hi Wayne,
I don't see this being a real problem. The current output of stty -g on the
system I'm using is about 225 bytes. The minimum acceptable value for LINE_MAX
in the current standard is 2048 (including the terminating <newline>
character). I'm not expecting terminal settings to need an additional 1800
bytes to be represented in text form in the foreseeable future.
