From article <897@uakari.primate.wisc.edu>, by bin@primate.wisc.edu (Brain in Neutral):
| I see the following problem in DECterm, which I did not experience with
| Ultrix 3.0/UWS 2.0.  Typing ^S to stop the scrolling in the terminal window
| works.  Typing ^Q to restart does not, UNLESS I lift my finger off the
| control key first.  It appears the keyboard manager notices key down/up
| events for the control key, but doesn't check if the key is still down - at
| least for flow control...

Well.  Selecting Customize/Keyboard... and turning off "Ctrl-Q,Ctrl-S = Hold"
seems to do the trick.  Guess that should've been obvious :-)
