But I cannot make the line 8 bit clean. I tried many combinations of the stty settings. But none worked. I ran stty cs8 -parenb -istrip on both sides, but nothing changed. Running tip from another machine, which runs SunSO supporting 8 bit characters, I can view texts containing 8 bit characters. I don't know if it's tip or com driver that prohibits 8 bit chars. I believe this has been discussed before. I appreciate if someone can tell me the solution or indicate where I can get the archived news. Thanks. C. Ding -- Chris Ding chris@portal.shell.com
