When I try to scp a file to my remote server I get the following error:
stty: standard input: Invalid argument
This is caused by a line in my .bashrc
file:
stty -ixon
If I remove that line, the error goes away. however, if I remove that line, then when I ssh in, if I accidentally hit [CTRL]+S then the shell freezes and it takes me a while to figure out what happened.
Is there any way to resolve this? to prevent that error without removing that line from .bashrc
, or some other way to prevent [CTRL]+S from freezing the terminal?
