System name:		w20-575-128
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.7Q
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	use talk

What's wrong:
	a) On my side of the xterm, I see all the control characters. i.e.
carriage returns are replaced by ^M's.
	b) When the person I'm talking to types, it takes forever (meaning 
sometimes minutes) for his characters to show up on my screen).

What should have happened:
	a) Perfect representation of what I type.
	b) His characters, one by one, as he types

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	Please fix this. My experience is that most of these bugs go unfixed.
I have sent several bug reports about programs that were rendered completely 
unusable, and none of them were attended to.
