Wow - that's a long amount of time! I started with unix (my first love ;)) even earlier.

Just type ps > /dev/console to see the effect.

I must use \r\n on all my programs to get correct stderr-output on
background-apps. So for me it's better to set console to COOKED.

But the real solution is to have no COOKED but translation as I said before.

You may run the stty from xaaes.cnf if you want RAW console. No great
deal, is it?
