One of my users pointed out that the programs we run on freebsd (pine, 
tin, trn etc) dont behave as they do under sco in one basic respect.

There seems to be in sco a typeahead buffner, and not on the freebsd.

What I mean is if you use a program often enough to be able to type all 
the keystrokes to a goal in advance, you can do it on sco but not on 
freebsd - its like its flushed out at the next input.

Is this something configurable? or just an aspect of the difference in 
tcp/ip implementations?
