Subject: MEX112 sendout bug

MEX112.BUG forwarded from the RCPM circuit:

***********************   BUG ALERT !!! ************************

MEX 1.12 has a nasty bug in the 'SENDOUT' command 
	this bug has not shown itself in version 1.11
*********************************************************
* IF							*
*	(REPLY is greater than zero)	and		*
*	(SODELAY is off)		and		*
*	(WTECHO is off)			and		*
*	(XOFF is on)					*
* THEN							*
*	using SENDOUT command 				*
*		will not continue with READ file	*
*		will not return to command state	*
*		will not respond to keyboard		*
*		will leave you dead in the waters	*
*			(up the creek without a paddle)	*
*********************************************************

Should this message make it to Ron Fowler, suggestion for MEX 2.0 or sooner:

	Allow toggle to silence messages like '***REPLY***','ZZZZZ',
'Term-mode' and other stat responses when executing from a READ file.
This way, one would see exactly what is happening on-line just as if
one is executing all commands invisibly (no harsh interrupting messages).
These messages take up valuable screen space.

	MEX is really evolving ... can't wait for version 2
