On ANSI 3.64, "ESC #" is "lock keyboard".  If that's seen,
the only way to reset is is a ctrl-shift-break (on a VT100)
or using the xterm menu based reset, previously described.

We use to put this escape sequence into our .finger files so
that we could do ANSI 3.64 animations that the watcher would
have to "sit back and enjoy".
