Sometimes you are for the issue when you vote against it. In our Oregon Voter's pamphlet, they give the pro and con on each ballot measure, and then list what organizations stand behind each side. It may say Greenpeace is for it and Monsanto is against it. You can then vote with better assurance. [...]44_17Jul200211:43: [log in to unmask] |

Your problem almost certainly doesn't have anything to do with the modems
themselves. Function keys have three modes: local, transmit, and normal, and
they react differently with the host.
If the function keys are in local mode, nothing gets transmitted to the host.
The function key contents are executed wholly locally in the terminal. If the
keys are in transmit mode, the key contents are transmitted to the host in
one fell swoop and a CR is attached at the end, and the keys go into a locked
mode (if you press a second function key) until a DC1 is returned from the
host. If the keys are in normal mode, each character is transmitted one
character at a time, just as if you typed it by hand. In this last mode, you
have to purposefully put in CR's if you want them there.
The last mode should be indistinguishable from you typing the sequences by
hand.
