NAME

6       Term::Completion::_stty - utility package for Term::Completion using
7       stty
8

DESCRIPTION

10       This utility package contains few methods that are required for
11       Term::Completion to put the terminal in "raw" mode and back.  This
12       package uses the "stty" utility, which however is probably only
13       available on UNIX.
14
15       This is basically a copy from the original Term::Complete and provided
16       for compatibility reasons. Instead of this, the
17       Term::Completion::_POSIX implementation should be used.
18
19   Methods
20       set_raw_tty()
21           Uses "stty raw -echo" to set the terminal into "raw" mode, i.e.
22           switch off the meaning of any control characters like CRTL-C etc.
23           Also the echo of characters is switched off, so that the program
24           has full control of what is typed and displayed.
25
26           Before doing that, tries to capture the terminal's current state
27           with "stty -g" and stores that for later use.
28
29           Will work on STDIN and ignore what was set as the input handle in
30           Term::Completion.
31
32       reset_tty()
33           Resets the terminal to its previous state, using the saved state.
34           If that's unavailable, fall back to "stty -raw echo".
35
36       get_key()
37           Reads one byte from the input handle. Uses standard getc(), see
38           also "getc" in perlfunc.
