- I've been having the same problem (Telix 3.14) in a DOS window/full screen.
- Sometimes it works, and sometimes I have to press a key (I'm using CTRL)
- for the characters to come up. It seems like the incoming characters are
- getting "stuck" in a buffer somewhere, and pressing a key "releases" them.
- If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it.
