A break appears as a "framing error", at least on the DH-11. Some terminals, e.g. Tek 4014, maintain the break condition so long that *two* framing errors are detected by the DH-11. To avoid various kinds of havoc that this can cause on UNIX, Duke's dh was modified so a framing error causes further input to be ignored for BRKTIME seconds (my guess was 300ms). Perhaps your "two break" problem can be solved this way. Tom Truscott (duke!trt)
