RE: remote function problems.

You most probably have call to stty in your .zshrc or /etc/zshrc (that is being
executed for every interactive shell; and you force your shell to be interactive
with -i option).

1. Do not use -i option. Why do you need it?

2. Wrap call to stty around

if [[ -t 0 ]]; then
	stty ...
fi
