rts/cts flow control is different, and flow control is not based on a carrier detect;
we're missing a dsusp control character.
we don't strip to 7 bits; we map carriage return to newline on input: we enable start/stop output control; we allow any character to restart outut; we impose a limit on the characters in the input queue; we signal intr on break.
we post-process output; we expand tabs to spaces on output; we don't discard EOF's on output.
we're processing input in canonical mode, with a time of 0; we check against special control characters; we do extened control characters if possible; we echo input; an erase character visually deletes the former character; we don't do alternative word erase; we don't discard output; we don't pend input after switching modes; we assume the hardware is not processing terminal data.
