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? --Sridhar Ramachandran.

Try M-x (enable-flow-control) This sets C-] equal to C-s so that you won't be locking the screen scroll (which I know can be very annoying). Now, C-] will invoke I-search and likewise C-x C-s will invoke save-buffer, etc. If this is what your looking for just insert (enable-flow-control) in your .emacs file.

I suggested (enable-flow-control) which I have since learned is local only to SUNY at Buffalo. Sorry 'bout that, I'll do better next time 8^).
