Details:
On different platforms stty -a doesn't like being invoked inside a pipeline;
e.g.,
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /dev/null | stty -a
stty: standard input: Invalid argument
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ stty -a </dev/null
stty: standard input: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /dev/null | : `stty -a`
stty: standard input: Invalid argument
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /dev/null | : `stty -a </dev/tty`
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
Note the last example worked. This was on a Debian Sid system.
Please document this behavior.
