Perhaps I'm wrong, but there seems to be a bug in the vt100 emulation
of jrcomm.  When I'm in emacs (on unix), and I type Ctrl-Shift-2 (to
mark a block), and then ctrl-w, it says "The mark is not set", but
it works fine with good ole (rock solid) vt100 v2.8a.  Also, Ctrl-space
seems to just send a normal space (alternate for mark block, you see).

I, for one, will not pay my registration fee until it behaves like a vt100.
Kinda a pain to delete 100 lines by hitting ^K 100 times...

Thanks for any help anyone gives me!
