Clearly, if you are using a BSD system, you can (almost) always type ^Z to suspend the current process and have the shell regain control of the terminal. On a related note, many places (BRL included) have modified the tty driver to provide ^T service directly from the kernel when the tty is in COOKED mode. I don't know if this is what you are trying to attempt. Best, -Mike
