	well, i forget that i am/was using the linux stty, so my
	question probably should go to that flavor on Nix ... just
	because there may be somed differences between the bsd
	flavor of stty and the linux version.

	this hads to do with my port of the python key-click script
	i was asking about about a week ago.  i do have something
	working in C/C++.  i'm getting going with the volume option 
	today.

	i just wanted some few lines of C to replace the system()
	calls forf stty.

	thanks,

	gary

	ps:  what i'm working on just _may_ work on both bsd and
	linux.  dunno yet.
