We have a problem with the vt100 program that comes with
the ibm tcp 1.2.1.  When we connect to a Silicon graphics machine
an then do a control-c (to kill some job), the terminal 
appears to stop responding to any keystrokes.
Further investigation, by turning on the hex display, shows that
the correct responses are sent and received. And the link is still
actually alive but the display does not change.
Telnet sessions work, but I don't want to use it because it
hogs too much of the processor.  And the SGI does not know about vt200
type terminals.
Anyone else have this problem with SGI machines? If so,
do you have a cure?
