Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

Hi Greg M.,
                       Yes, I used to get caught like that
often when I used telnet all thew time.  There
is an Alt-F? combination that is listed in one
of the help screens that it says to only use if
stuck. I think it's Alt-F3 but it's been a while since
I used it so I could be wrong.
