stty: add support for extproc/LINEMODE
Add support for the "extproc" option which is well described at: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2011-01/msg00004.html * src/stty.c (usage): Describe the extproc option if either the Linux EXTPROC local option is defined, or the equivalent BSD TIOCEXT ioctl is defined. (main): Make the separate ioctl call for extproc on BSD. * doc/coreutils.texi (stty invocation): Describe the option, and reference the related RFC 1116. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
