Running stty -a dialed in from Hyperterminal I get the results below. min
is set to 1. The only differences from what you sent in your reply are
echoe, echoctl, and echoke without '-'.
Does it matter what the TERM environment variable is set to? I have
configured agetty to set it to vt100 and to nothing (defualt to cygwin). I
get the same results.
The problem is not just with the end of line \r. As I type characters,
every second character causes the echo of the two characters. If the end of
line happens to be the second of a pair, the command works.
$ stty -a
speed 38400 baud; rows 24; columns 80; line = 0;
intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^H; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;
eol2 = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; rprnt = ^R; werase = ^W;
lnext = ^V; flush = ^O; min = 1; time = 0;
