It appears, then, that there was a bug in SET TERMINAL under VMS v4.3: prior
to version 4.0 VMS and starting again with version 4.4 VMS, the /PASSALL and 
the /INTERACTIVE qualifiers were complementary, and that is the way they were
documented in version 4.3.  To get "raw" terminal I/O with flow control
handled properly, you use the /PASTHRU qualifier.  As to the lack of
documentation for the /INTERACTIVE and /PASSALL qualifiers, these are,
apparently, being phased out (and it's about time).  Since /PASTHRU honors
the /TTSYNC modifier, /NOINTERACTIVE (as you wish it to be interpreted) is 
equivalent to /PASTHRU/TTSYNC, /PASSALL to /PASTHRU/NOTTSYNC, and /INTERACTIVE
to /NOPASTHRU.
