[comp.unix.xenix] Tandy 6000 XENIX and flow control

mikes@ncoast.UUCP (11/19/87)

Recently a message about problems with Tandy XENIX flow control was
posted.  An attempt to send a message to the poster has vanished
(along with the original posting); the following is the original 
question and the response from Someone Who Knows:

Never heard of it, With a tektronix 430 rs232 protcal analyser I can show
that  ^S's and ^Q's are being sent properly.. Suspect his tty struct is
not being set up properly...
