cooked mode
Jump to user comments
The normalUnix character-input mode, with interrupts enabled
and with erase, kill and other special-character
interpretations performed directly by the tty driver.
Opposite of raw mode. See also rare mode. Other
operating systems often have similar mode distinctions, and
the raw/rare/cooked way of describing them has spread widely
along with the C language and other Unix exports. Most
generally, "cooked mode" may refer to any mode of a system
that does extensive preprocessing before presenting data to a
program.
