Re: [9fans] Double Your input with cons

["Mark C. Otto" <Mark_Otto@FWS.Gov>]

Thanks for the help on the con input.  Telnetd does does do some handshaking to
see who is going to echo.  I am using con -d and telnet -d to figure that out

Using 

con -C -r   # -r removes the carriage returns

corrects both the double text pasting and the execution of cut text problems.  
But like Rob said, my password shows up as I type it though--thanks Russ.  
I'll just have to watch my back until I delete my password. ;-)

I could not get Jean Mehat's 1,3,2 chording to remove the extra text when I 
am not in character mode.  I imagine that it added the text in on the command
line then deleted it again.

I did notice that on the command line that the cut/paste action does not 
take effect until I release the 1 button, whereas in the rest of the 
window, the actions take place as the buttons are pushed.  

I agree with Rog that in line mode, it would be nice to paste multiple 
lines and only have them sent after pushing the return.  That project
has a lower priority than getting my CPU and file server up, so I can
live more in the plan9 world.
