+# stty save/restore behavior in uutils
+
+This page documents the `-g` (save) format and round-trip behavior of `uutils stty`.
+
+## `-g` output format
+
+`uutils stty -g` prints the current terminal settings in a colon-separated hexadecimal format that is designed to be read back by `uutils stty` itself.
+
+The format is:
+
+```
+<input_flags_hex>:<output_flags_hex>:<control_flags_hex>:<local_flags_hex>:<cc0>:<cc1>:...:<ccN>
+```
+
+- The first four fields are the termios flag bitfields (input, output, control, local), printed as hexadecimal numbers.
+- The remaining fields are the control character bytes (CCs), each printed as a 1–2 digit hexadecimal value. The number of CC fields depends on the platform (the platform’s NCCS value).
+
+Example:
+
+```
+6b02:3:4b00:200005cf:4:ff:ff:7f:17:15:12:0:3:1c:1a:19:11:13:16:f:1:0:14:0
+```
+
+## Round-trip compatibility
+
+`uutils stty` supports reading back its own `-g` output:
+
+```
+stty "$(stty -g)"
+```
+
+This restores the same settings and exits with code 0. Unknown/unsupported flag bits on a given platform are safely ignored.
+
+## GNU `stty` compatibility (gfmt1)
+
+GNU `stty -g` commonly prints a `gfmt1` key/value format, e.g.:
+
+```
+gfmt1:cflag=4b00:iflag=6b02:lflag=200005cf:oflag=3:...:ispeed=38400:ospeed=38400
+```
+
+Currently, `uutils stty` does not parse `gfmt1`. Use `uutils stty -g` output for restore with `uutils stty`.
+
+Mixing formats between `uutils stty` and GNU `stty` may fail. If you must interoperate, prefer using the same implementation for both save and restore steps.
+
+## Platform notes
+
+- The number of control characters (NCCS) and the underlying bit width for termios flags vary by platform. `uutils stty` reads NCCS at runtime and truncates unknown bits when applying flags.
+- Hexadecimal is case-insensitive. Empty CC fields are treated as 0.
+
+## Error handling
+
+- Malformed hex values or a mismatched number of CC fields result in a non-zero exit code and an error message (e.g., "invalid argument" or "invalid integer argument").
+
+## Future compatibility
+
+Support for reading GNU `gfmt1` may be considered in future versions. For now, rely on `uutils stty`’s colon-separated hex format for save/restore round-trips.
+
+
+
+## Advanced edge-case validation
+
+The implementation has been validated with an extensive suite of edge-case tests to ensure robustness across platforms and terminals. Highlights:
+
+- Boundary conditions
+  - Minimal valid payload: accept a string with the four flag fields plus exactly NCCS control characters, all set to 0; succeeds and normalizes on reprint.
+  - Case-insensitivity: accept uppercase and mixed-case hex for all fields; round-trip preserves state.
+  - Leading zeros: accept arbitrarily padded fields; output normalizes to minimal-width hex.
+
+- Error handling
+  - Insufficient fields (< 5 total): rejected with exit code 1 and "invalid argument".
+  - Extra CC fields (> NCCS): rejected with exit code 1 and "invalid argument".
+  - Malformed hex in any flag field: rejected with exit code 1 and "invalid integer argument '<chunk>'".
+  - Unexpected characters (spaces, punctuation): rejected early with exit code 1 and "invalid integer argument '<input>'".
+
+- Platform compatibility
+  - Exact CC count enforced using the platform’s runtime NCCS; NCCS−1 and NCCS+1 inputs are rejected.
+  - Flag fields parsed into platform tcflag_t width; unknown bits are safely ignored (truncate semantics).
+
+- Data integrity
+  - Unknown/high bits in flags are accepted but do not persist when re-saved; round-tripping returns to canonical values.
+
+- Security considerations
+  - Oversized inputs (e.g., thousands of CC entries) are rejected quickly via count validation; no excessive CPU or memory use observed.
+
+These tests live under tests/by-util/test_stty_roundtrip.rs and tests/by-util/test_stty_hex_edges.rs and run under the feature flag `stty`.
+
+## Troubleshooting and examples
+
+- Restore from current settings
+  - stty "$(stty -g)"
+
+- Uppercase input
+  - stty "$(stty -g | tr 'a-f' 'A-F')" # succeeds
+
+- Leading zeros
+  - Provide any number of leading zeros per field; the next `stty -g` prints normalized hex.
+
+- Insufficient fields
+  - stty "6b02:3:4b00:200005cf" # fails with: invalid argument '...'
+
+- Malformed hex
+  - stty "6b02:zz:4b00:200005cf:..." # fails with: invalid integer argument 'zz'
+
+- Trailing whitespace or punctuation
+  - stty "$(stty -g) " # fails with: invalid integer argument '...'
+
+## PTY and /dev/tty
+
+- Tests prefer using /dev/tty when available; CI also exercises a PTY-backed path so behavior is validated on real terminals and pseudo-terminals.
+- If /dev/tty is unavailable, some tests are skipped; the utility itself will error if the selected file descriptor is not a terminal (consistent with termios behavior).
+
+## Cross-platform behavior
+
+- Termios flag widths (tcflag_t) differ (Linux commonly u32; macOS/BSD may be u64). The parser uses tcflag_t and from_bits_truncate to remain portable.
+- The number and meaning of control characters differ across platforms; the parser enforces the exact CC count for the current platform.
+- ispeed/ospeed are not encoded in the colon-hex format; `uutils stty` does not parse or set speeds from `-g` input. This is documented and by design.
+
+## Performance and safety
+
+- Parsing uses safe Rust conversions and bounded operations; no unsafe code paths in the hex parser.
+- Large malformed inputs are rejected by early validation (character filter and CC count), preventing excessive allocations or quadratic behavior.
+
+## CI coverage
+
+- Matrix includes Linux and macOS. Tests cover:
+  - Round-trip save/restore
+  - Mixed-case hex and leading zeros
+  - Error cases (insufficient/extra fields, malformed hex, unexpected characters)
+  - NCCS mismatch rejection
+  - Unknown flag-bit truncation behavior
