Put this line in your .emacs

(set-input-mode nil t)

This will turn on cbreak mode (the nil) and enable flow control (the t).
If you want more info get help on 'set-input-mode'. The only draw back is
this will disable keystrokes that use ^S/^Q. If you would like I can
send you a copy of my .emacs, I thinks I've remapped most of the
important bindings.
