--------------
|
|
The :mod:`tty` module defines functions for putting the tty into cbreak and raw
|
modes.
|
|
Because it requires the :mod:`termios` module, it will work only on Unix.
|
|
The :mod:`tty` module defines the following functions:
|
|
|
.. function:: setraw(fd, when=termios.TCSAFLUSH)
|
|
Change the mode of the file descriptor *fd* to raw. If *when* is omitted, it
|
defaults to :const:`termios.TCSAFLUSH`, and is passed to
|
:func:`termios.tcsetattr`.
|
|
|
.. function:: setcbreak(fd, when=termios.TCSAFLUSH)
|
|
Change the mode of file descriptor *fd* to cbreak. If *when* is omitted, it
|
defaults to :const:`termios.TCSAFLUSH`, and is passed to
|
:func:`termios.tcsetattr`.
