What you’re describing would be a completely unusable terminal. You’d lose things as basic as the backspace key. And what’s wrong with Terminal.app indicating when it’s suppressing output?
- rsync 6mo agoTerminal.app does not suppress output in my example. The ssh command switches the terminal into no-echo mode with termios flags. Terminal.app, being clever, watches for disabled echo (among other things) and assumes a password is being entered and displays the key icon and enables Secure Event Input. I don't want Terminal.app to be clever.
- rafram 6mo agoWhy not?
- PunchyHamster 6mo agoYou're talking nonsense. Backspace worked entirely fine on dumb terminals
