I don't have access to the necessary manuals right now, but I think the procedure is as follows: $ SET TERMINAL TXC2: /ALTYPAHD You can also adjust the terminal type ahead buffer sizes via SYSGEN. I think the parameter names are TTY_TYPAHDSZ and TTY_ALTYPAHD. As I recollect, the settings I used were something like 256 and 2000 respectively. A check in the SYSGEN manual will give the correct names if these are wrong. Doug
