I did, I think a "stty cs8", or something of that nature (whatever the
manpage said) on Linux - didn't work 
Thanks.

What exactly are you trying to do? Does it involve UTF-8 characters?
If the terminal's UTF-8 setting does not match your locale, you will
see rectangles or extra characters, especially the letter A with a
tilde. To turn UTF-8 on or off in xterm, press ctrl and the right mouse
button, and select "UTF-8" in the menu.

cs8 just means "don't strip the data to 7bits". For binary mode you
will need -icanon and -opost to disable processing of incomming and
outgoing data. Also, the proper setting of parity modes is required.
