I don't remember which character output routine I'm using. That might be relevant. Hardware flow control versus software flow control may be relevant. I can turn the spigot on/off with a signal instead of a full character transmission and processing on the other end. But that doesn't make screen render or scroll any faster. One of the function keys in HTERM toggles scrolling altogether maybe F6. Handy when you accidentally run a command with lengthy output and you don't want to wait for the display to catch up but you don't want to kill the command either. -- John.
