I am using SCO Xenix System V 2.2. The documentation for shl
(shell layers) refers to the stty character "swtch", which is used
to wake up shl in order to switch layers. Naturally, no such character
is documented in the man entries for stty, tty, or termio. I wish to
write a program which operates in a similar manner to shl, but my
only reference to the character is in its definition in termio.h,
which places it in the last position of c_cc in struct termio. But
what happens when the character is typed? Does the kernel care?
If the kernel doesn't look at this character, why is stored in
termio?
