Subject: pico bug?

Sorry if this isn't the correct place to send this, but pico is packaged
with pine, and I couldn't find any mailing list specifically for pico.

This has been bothering me for about 2 years now.  When you press
Control-s in pico, the terminal freezes up.  You can't kill it with
control-c, control-d, control-z, or anything else that I could find.  You
have to switch to a new terminal and kill the job (and sometimes that
doesn't even restore the terminal).
This is particularly bad because in emacs, control-s is the command key
for searching.  So I often hit it accidently in pico, when I meant to do
control-w.
I hope that someone can fix this bug, and I'd be happy if someone could
tell me if there's a fix I could use to stop this from happening.

-John

	hello,

I think that this is not a PICO problem, if you are using pine
within a UNIX/Linux terminal, CTRL S means to freeze the terminal,
so PICO has nothing to do here. To unlock it you just need to press
CTRL Q.

hope this will help you

regards/Bertrand

You can unfreeze it using CTRL+Q

Oh, you're right.  I hadn't known about control-q.

thanks!
