The problem is likely the that you don't have the full path to stty in your
script, and the automated jobs don't have a proper path set yet. Use the
full pathname in your script and see if that works.

Hello all,
I've been upgrading my FreeBSD system into a fully-fledged desktop
system.
zsh as installed (from the port) seems only to recognize the /etc/zshenv
startup file. And I needed an stty command to get proper backspace/delete
behavior. Because only the /etc/zshenv file seemed to be recognized,
I had to put the stty command in it.
The stty command works fine, but unsurprisingly produces an error in my
automated jobs that ssh into the system. So I tried:
if [ ${TERM} ]
then
stty erase "^?"
fi
That didn't work, so I tried:
if [ -n ${TERM} ]
then
stty erase "^?"
fi
Someone who actually knows what they're doing will, I'm sure, instantly
recognize the problem with this. I'm pretty sure TERM is indeed the
variable I should be testing, but that I'm not testing it in the right
way.
What is the magic way?
