  I am using GNU Emacs 17.49 on several terminals, including one  PT224. 

  We have no termcap entry for this terminal, so I use the vt100 entry. But
some commands which work OK for a vt100 (or a PT220  with the vt100 termcap
entry) behave strangely on the PT224.

  Basically, on the PT224, Emacs is executing the 'isearch-forward' command
with the  beginning of some  string to search for, as  if I  had typed  C-s
followed by some other keys.  (In fact, if I had  really entered C-s,  then
the terminal would have intercepted it and entered a No-Scroll state ..)

  If you uses a PT224 and have a good termcap  entry, could you please mail
it to me ? If  you  know that the  problem has nothing  to do with termcap,
could you please inform me about it ? Much thanks in advance.
