I tried CRT, and it does indeed perform the echoing properly. I hadn't
realized the echoing was simply a hint to the client, which did the echoing
locally. The clients I'm using must ignore that hint.
Thanks for the help! I now understand the problem, and can put in a work
around for clients that don't do local echoing properly.
