[BRLTTY] stty and ofill

So if I open a shell and then set the stty parameters when I hit  
return the changes I made wouldn't be in effect if I went to use my  
serial device? Like if I tried the following:

$ stty ofill nl1 (or whataver the correct command is)
$ cat > /dev/cu.usbserial-FTKVMAFF

The changes I made to stty after I hit return will not be in effect  
for the cat command?
