I have a small problem with Excelan's telnet for the NCR Tower.
It only occurs when I telnet to a DG machine running AOS/VS.
NCR to Sun's and Vax's works fine, and so does Vax and Mac to DG.

When I do a 'cat', 'ls' or anything else that outputs more than a couple
of lines, output seems to be suspended every 1/2 page, just as if I had
been using 'more' or 'pg'. Pressing SPACE, NL, CR or any other key,
gives me the next 1/2 page. The characters are not used by the DG host,
istead they are put in the normal input buffer and are used as part of
the next command.

Local telnet-status says:

  .......
  Do suppress go aheads (GAs).
  Remote echo.
  Ascii mode

Changing 'Do suppress...' to 'Do not suppress...' don't help
(whatever those GAs are).

Any ideas?
