One of the menu options can show you a dialog box that displays three control key codes that do special things, like interrupt, stop scrolling, etc. Usually, interrupt is set for ^C, which is necessary in emacs. All you have to do is go through the menus, find this dialog box, and change the entry from ^C to something else, and then save your new Telnet settings. I always just delete the ^C and leave the box empty! --Haydn
