To prevent problems, always redirect both stdin and stdout to the same device. .SH "COMPATIBILITY" .sp Since version 2.25 \fBsetterm\fP has support for long options with two hyphens, for example \fB\-\-help\fP, beside the historical long options with a single hyphen, for example \fB\-help\fP. In scripts it is better to use the backward\-compatible single hyphen rather than the double hyphen. Currently there are no plans nor good reasons to discontinue single\-hyphen compatibility. |
