     The problem is that the CLR/HOME key sends a ^S (xoff) to your host,
which, in most cases, promptly echos it back.  This is interpreted as a
"don't send me any more" by MicroVT, and it refuses to transmit.  This
happens to me on the average of twice an hour.  Hitting a ^Q (xon) takes
care of it just fine.  Try it, and look at the status line.
