We are using a VMS version of TELNET.

It gives a choice:   In line mode communication is fast, but none
of the cbreak applications (vi, rn, more, etc.) are really usable.
In char mode, it sends one char a second - painful!

I understand there may be a configurable option (IAH sequence?)
giving a mode where telnet will batch all chars received within 
a certain timeslot.   Can anyone help?
