Ok, here I am, blessed with my VT240 emulator running on a pc. Now, how do I teach emacs not to interpret C-s and C-q as XOFF and XON? Better yet, can someone give me a reasonable substitute for these and also show me how to get emacs to accept them? I know virtually noting about Lisp. Mike

Here is my solution. I install this in "xon.el" (somewhere along your loadpath). Then, when I'm on a braindamaged terminal (or using a braindamaged terminal interconnect network), I just M-x load-file xon.el ; Map ^\ to ^S and ^^ to ^Q, and turn on flow control (setq keyboard-translate-table "\0\1\2\3\4\5\6\7\10\11\12\13\14\15\16\17\20\21\22\23\24\25\26\27\30\31\32\33\23\35\21") (set-input-mode nil t) =Spencer (spencer@crim.eecs.umich.edu)

I install this in "xon.el" (somewhere along your > loadpath). This is fine, AND I use xon.el (load it from my .emacs file). But, I also like remapping the I-search in the same .emacs file to: (global-unset-key "^F") (define-key global-map "^F" 'isearch-forward) NOTE: I have replaced a Control-F with a carrot-F for transmission purposes! So, whenever I want to do an Isearch-forward I just use ^F.
