Typeahead. I'm surprised, though, that Linux has this problem. A fast typist logging into even the slowest VAX (or fastest Alpha screamer) running VMS never has this problem (and typeahead is always used in VMS, since network lag to remote systems causes "lag" all the time). -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jefferson, LA USA Thanks to the good people in Microsoft, a great deal of the data that flows is dependent on one company.
