Hi,

I have a Telebit T3000, a NeXT serial cable and a NSColor Turbo.  I am
using tip to log on at 14400+ BAUD to a remote UNIX computer
and am losing characters during screen draws and refreshes
(from the remote computer).  Also, I believe I have the modem
using CTS/RTS (hardware handshaking), so if my NS is paying attention
to handshaking, it should never drop characters, right?

Any help getting my machine to cooperate would be appreciated!

Also, if anyone knows how to get tip to pass characters through
transparently (particularly, ^A and ^P), I would like to know!

Thanks much,
