Csh and stty

I use Uniplus+ System III, and here "stty" looks at stdin, NOT stdout.
It prints its output on stdout.  This seems like a much more reasonable
arrangement.  There is an option (-g) which makes it output an octal
string that can be used as input for another stty.  Since it outputs on
stdout, this can be used as
	OLDMODES=`stty -g`
	stty ...
	....
	stty $OLDMODES
