stty: 'standard input': Inappropriate ioctl for device

When i added

stty intr ^X

to my ~/.zshrc file it is always showing stty: 'standard input': Inappropriate ioctl for device on startup.

Please help, thanks in advance.

Use of stty should really only be used with interactive shells. The simplest option is to prefix the stty statement with a conditional so that it is only executed in an interactive shell.

Here is one way to do it:

[ "$PS1" ] && stty intr '^C'

Hope this helps 👍🏻
