Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting What does this really mean? "tty -s && stty istrip" Post 302495863 by kchinnam on Friday 11th of February 2011 11:44:26 AM

What exactly one would be saving by setting "istrip"?
[ memory space/CPU cycles/Modem baud speed ]

It feels like it is going to accept only non-extended ASCII characters i.e from 0-127.

If its really the "baud speed", my machine has this setting..
$> stty -a | grep baud
speed 38400 baud;

So there is no point in setting this on my machine right !?

I also wonder why anyone would still want to use character set[s] other than UTF-8 in this internet age!
