Using a flow control sequences for editor commands; what can go wrong?
Using a flow control sequences for editor commands; what can go wrong?
Whenever I use Windows my fingers are surprised to remember that the windows key isn't used for menu commands.
Hopefully a cautionary tale against careless in-band signalling.
Many of us carried that to our VT100 terminals and used it when lines of code or output would flood the screen faster than we could read.
Eventually paginators like 'more' and 'less' were invented and flow control via the keyboard codes for XON/XOFF fell out of favor, but some of us have very strong muscle memory. :)
