VT52 is a public domain program that I obtained the right to
include with the 1670 modem.  My guess is that you are talking
to the VAX at work (BTL) and you need to interrupt the flow of
things.  Try the DEL key (F7).  This worked for me back at BTL-IN.

As for Common Sense, I think it might be possible to create a
function key to slow the baud rate down REEEAALLL SSSLLLLOOOOWWW
and send a character that is low most of the time, then speed
things back up to the original speed.  This is how it is done
on the VT100 program.  This is kinda kludgy, but it works.
