The :mod:`tty` module defines functions for putting the tty into cbreak and raw modes.
Because it requires the :mod:`termios` module, it will work only on Unix.
The :mod:`tty` module defines the following functions:
.. function:: setraw(fd, when=termios.TCSAFLUSH) Change the mode of the file descriptor *fd* to raw. If *when* is omitted, it defaults to :const:`termios.TCSAFLUSH`, and is passed to :func:`termios.tcsetattr`.
.. function:: setcbreak(fd, when=termios.TCSAFLUSH) Change the mode of file descriptor *fd* to cbreak. If *when* is omitted, it defaults to :const:`termios.TCSAFLUSH`, and is passed to :func:`termios.tcsetattr`.
