summary: Serial backends don't enable parity checking class: semi-bug: This might or might not be a bug, depending on your precise definition of what a bug is. difficulty: tricky: Needs many tuits. priority: low: We aren't sure whether to fix this or not. present-in: 2006-08-29 r6815
While PuTTY has settings to enable parity bits on serial
connections, it doesn't actually do anything about input parity
errors. On Unix, this would appear to require setting
INPCK, and on Windows setting fParity.
The only question is, what should we do if we do get a parity error?
