Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema/issues/72

After using asciinema I have to re-issue the stty -ixon command, which is required to use C-s e.g. in Vim.

After recording the video this setting should be reset to its previous state.

This is probably because of RESET sequence that is sent to the terminal after recording is finished. Next version doesn't suffer from this issue.

So is this fixed in Git already?

Or do you mean it's coming from here?
https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-cli/blob/master/asciinema/commands/record.py#L61-63

However, I can confirm however that calling reset manually triggers the same behavior.

New version is being prepared on "go" branch, there's no reset there anymore.

0.9.9 has just been released. It doesn't mess with XON/XOFF or any other terminal settings.
