Unfortunately, I cannot seem to find that magic sequence to toggle the XON/XOFF bit on the vt100. There is no such sequence. Use of XON/XOFF is not a host-settable parameter in the VT1xx series. Hopefully this is something that is fixed in the VT200 series, but I'll bet it isn't. -- Barry Margolin ARPA: barmar@MIT-Multics UUCP: ..!genrad!mit-eddie!barmar
