Hi,

This is a question for those who use emacs through putty.

Putty by default, seems to send the "stop" terminal character when you
enter C-s.  To start the terminal again, you have to press C-q.  This
breaks the default binding for isearch-forward.  Do you just re-bind
isearch-forward to something else or is there a way to make putty just
send what emacs expects?

Cheers,
Andy

As far as I know, your problem has nothing to do with PuTTY; you
merely need to do put "stty -ixon" in your .bash_profile.
