Some terminals and computers use special characters to clear the screen or
perform other "special" functions. Placing these characters in the MFILTER
list, and turning AFILTER ON will keep the PK-232 from sending them.
Exception: When ECHO is ON, and the terminal or computer sends a filtered
character, the PK-232 will echo it back to the terminal or computer.
AFILTER works regardless of mode, or CONNECT/CONVERSE/TRANSPARENT status.
One must be careful to leave AFILTER OFF during Binary file transfers.

ALFDisp ON|OFF Default: ON
Mode: All Host: AI
_________________________________ Parameters: _________________________________
ON - A line feed character <LF> IS sent to the terminal after each <CR>.
OFF - A <LF> is NOT sent to the terminal after each <CR>.
_______________________________________________________________________________
ALFDISP controls the display of carriage return characters received, as well as
the echoing of those that are typed in.
When ALFDISP is ON (default), your PK-232 adds a line feed <LF> to each carriage
return <CR> received, if needed. If a line feed was received either immediately
before or after a carriage return, ALFDISP will not add another line feed. Use
the PK-232's sign-on message to determine how carriage returns are being
displayed. ALFDISP affects your display; it does not affect transmitted data.
Set ALFDISP ON if the PK-232's sign-on message lines are typed over each other.
Set ALFDISP OFF if the PK-232's sign-on message is double spaced.
ALFDISP is set correctly if the PK-232's sign-on message is single spaced.

ALFPack ON|OFF Default: OFF
Mode: Packet Host: AP
_________________________________ Parameters: _________________________________
ON - A <LF> character IS added after each <CR> sent in outgoing packets.
OFF - A <LF> is NOT added to outgoing packets (default).
_______________________________________________________________________________
ALFPACK is similar to ALFDISP, except that the <LF> characters are added to
outgoing (transmitted) packets, rather than to text displayed locally.
o If the person you are talking to reports overprinting of packets from your
station, set ALFPACK ON. ALFPACK is disabled in Transparent Mode.
