Re: [Flashforth-devel] FF 5.x - Xon Xoff with Teraterm

Mike, the flashing behaviour will not change in FF.
By sending ok with each line you just provide a syncing with terminal. 
Now you may have 300lines of comments without any ok (any sync), or a word def 300 lines long also without any sync thus the overruns occur.
Igor.
