Subject: CTRL-C wrong key in MAC

I have installed pine 3.89 on our HP. I am using a MAC with small keyboard
to connect with UNIX via telnet. When I run pine, the key CTRL-C is
supposed to cancel editing and return to Main Menu. However, it return to
quit pine. Is there any bug with my version of pine? How to correct it?
Will it happen in the new version of Pine?

I think you may have your Telnet set up to inercept Ctrl/C and interpret 
it as Interrupt Process.  Try looking in your Session menu at Setup Keys.

No promises, but I rmember there was a funny like this.

It's more likely telnet that's causing the problem. You're using NCSA 
Telnet for Mac? Hmm... Try hitting command-s (it's the key setup stuff). 
You'll see that "Interrupt" is set to control-c. Hilight that and hit 
delete. Just leave that entry blank, and see if control-c works in pine then.
