Correct.

No.

That's not flow control -- that's the answerback feature,
similar to what you would get on a Model 33 Teletype by
breaking selected teeth off the little plastic wheel -- kind
of a station ID.

No, sorry, you'll need to stick with Xon/Xoff, which is
pretty much the universally accepted protocol for in-band
flow control; Enq/Ack is peculiar to HP. If Xon/Xoff works
why would you want to change it?
