[comp.emacs] To scroll or not to scroll... that is the problem

kenmoore@unix.cis.pitt.edu (Kenneth L Moore) (12/12/89)

==>I have been having a problem with my GNU Emacs. Whenever I use
==>a sequence with C-S in it like search-forward and saving-buffers,
==>I scroll lock the terminal. It is as if Emacs hasn't read the
==>C-S at all. Then I have to type C-q to unlock the screen.
==>I am using a terminal with vt100 settings and default
==>Emacs settings. 

==>Can somebody help me out of this problem?

Don't use CTRL s. This is not just a flippant observation, but 
what I actually do frequently. Learn to use the Meta sequence 
or reassign the key bindings.
