Re: annoying C-s terminal freeze
Quoting Thomas Guettler ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): I don't like control-s to freeze my terminal. Is there a way to disable it? Yes. Why not make a freeze disabled terminal the default in debian? Because terminals have been using ^S that way for so long (I've been using it myself since the 70s) that people expect it. I can't see why some wants its terminal to freeze. So that they can read what's written there, amazing as that might seem!

RE: annoying C-s terminal freeze
Title: RE: annoying C-s terminal freeze Hi, if you have a terminal without (enough) scrolling capabilities and a lot of messages you do want to read when they appear, then freezing is just handy. I think you can bind the freezing of the terminal to other keycodes than Ctrl-s, but I did not try to, so I suggest you read the appropriate manuals for the appropriate terminal emulators...unless others have already working tips!
