Set a TTY Mode for an SSH PTY Request

See more SSH Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Ssh.SetTtyMode method, which adds or updates one TTY mode to be included in a later SendReqPty request. The first argument is the mode name and the second is its integer value. Call it once per mode, before requesting the PTY.

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
