One of the irritating quirks of Online's vt100 emulation is that
various control characters shift it into an alternate character set (I
don't remember real vt-100s being such a pain, but it's been awhile).
Anyhow, if your screen output turns to garbage, the following is
quicker than logging out, exiting Online?, restarting Online?, and
logging back in to whatever remote system you use:

	Go to the setup menu, select terminal, and set your terminal
type to something other than vt100; then set it back.  Online? resets
your terminal.
