critical impact:

tset - behavior differences (CrCh274)

Problem description

Some tset functionality on Tru64 UNIX differs from HP-UX. In addition, some options are not available on HP-UX.

The tset command initializes terminals.

The -S option exists on both platforms. However, on Tru64 UNIX, this prints the environment settings for TERM and TERMCAP, but on HP-UX this only does so for TERM.

The -icharacter option is supported only on Tru64 UNIX. This option sets the Interrupt character to character for all terminals, the default being Ctrl/C on many systems.
