i don't think so....

by default it's automatic.... => it detects if you have it or not
if you force it by --enable-termios..... then you force it..

maybe it should be renamed to --force-termios

That's life for you, said McDunn.  Someone always waiting for someone 
who never comes home.  Always someone loving something more than that 
thing loves them.  And after awhile you want to destroy whatever 
that thing is, so it can't hurt you no more.
