All right, we've had the explanations of what happens with a vt100 and flow control. Why on earth does a Sun CONSOLE not let ^S and ^Q through to emacs? Is there any way I can fix this bizarre behavior? I'm not talking about any serial lines, or network connections, I'm talking about GNU emacs running on the console of the sun here, and not being able to use ^S and ^Q.

We run 3.5 on Sun-3s and *our* emacs (a Gosling derivative) sees ^S and ^Q just fine. Or perhaps you have a patch in so that one uses (say) ^\ and ^^ instead of ^S and ^Q, for network connections, and this same patch is taking effect when you're on the console, so ^S and ^Q get ignored? der Mouse old: mcgill-vision!mouse new: mouse@larry.mcrcim.mcgill.edu
