Here is my solution. I install this in "xon.el" (somewhere along your loadpath). Then, when I'm on a braindamaged terminal (or using a braindamaged terminal interconnect network), I just M-x load-file xon.el ; Map ^\ to ^S and ^^ to ^Q, and turn on flow control (setq keyboard-translate-table "\0\1\2\3\4\5\6\7\10\11\12\13\14\15\16\17\20\21\22\23\24\25\26\27\30\31\32\33\23\35\21") (set-input-mode nil t) =Spencer (spencer@crim.eecs.umich.edu)
