Finally scoll lock on mac (Mac book pro scroll lock)

I have often pressed the coveted emacs key stroke ctrl-x-s when running vi (dumb me). Unfortunately Mac terminal hangs from there.



Many thanks to Malcom's comment I was able to get it.




On real terminals Scroll Lock sends Control-S to pause text and Control-Q to resume. Try typing Control-S, then Control-Q.
