RTS/CTS (was re: Help Telebit and SCO RTS/CTS Setup)

[Pete Holsberg]

A computer magazine recently tested a number of communications programs
at various speeds and published the results.  They said that at higher
transfer rates (57.6K and 115.2K), they used RTS/CTS handshaking because
(I'm paraphrasing) that's what you had to use when you had high speed
modems.  This puzzled me because I've been using Trailblazers at their
maximum speed for a couple of years now, with either no or XON/XOFF
handshaking.  Could someone enlighten me?

Thanks,
Pete
