X-Sun-Spots-Digest: Volume 7, Issue 218, message 14 of 17

I have noticed that after stopping an emacs job and bringing it to the
foreground, the CTL-s key sequence causes the screen to hold. This is what
would be expected outside of emacs, but while in emacs, the CTL-s key
sequence may be used for searching (CTL-s) or saving (CTL-x CTL-s).

I am using GNU emacs version 18, and the problem occurs close to 50% of
the time. I am able to "unhold" the screen by typing CTL-q. However, I
must exit to allow the CTL-s key sequence to work properly.

  Any help appreciated.
