This FORCEX trash is in direct violation of what a ^C AST is >supposed to do. Is there a way around it???? Are you sure you have installed your telnet image with the proper privileges?

I wrote a program under VMS, years ago, that could read in cbreak mode but could not ignore ^C's for this very reason. Joe Yao hadron!jsdy@seismo.{ARPA,UUCP}
