How come Control O does not work with Pico?  Everything else works fine.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

Are you using a Macintosh? Are you using NCSA Telnet? A lot depends on 
what software you're using to access the server you run pico from.

If you *are* using a Macintosh, the Control-O dilemma can be avoided by 
pressing Command-S (same as apple-S) when in NCSA Telnet then changing one 
of the Keys from control-O to something else.  This will only work, of course,
if one of those is set to control-O, which I have found is the case in many
situations.  This is also a good place to start if Emacs isn't working
properly (C-x C-c doesn't work because Interrupt Process is set to control-c).

   This is my problem as well: on SunOS 4.1.3, ^O doesn't work. On NeXTSTEP
3.3 for Intel, it does. Really strange. (For those who do not know, ^O saves
text without exitting - as opposed to ^X).

   Bye Borek.

Hello,

> text without exitting - as opposed to ^X).

  Using out copy of pine ^o (not zero) does work.  Could you be trying a 
zero instead of an 'o'?
  Just a thought.

Hmm... on this NeXTSTep 3.3 for Intel, it crashes when I go control-o, 
but I'm also using a weird double dialin connection before I get here.
