At Princeton we are building a campus-wide network which will support
a variety of different devices.  We are in search of a good
escape sequence which we can reserve for the use of the internet.
Users currently type ESCAPE DELETE to get the network, but this sequence
is used by some software.  We are considering Control-X Control-A, and
would like to hear from others who have faced this situation.  What
sequence did you choose?  Does anyone have a favorite piece of software
or hardware that already makes use of the sequence Control-X Control-A?
