Well my still operational Model 15 needs it as it does not have the Carriage
Return (CR) option installed. Just for fun and demonstrations I fire it up.
Driven from a Timewave 59Y. No way to get Baudot out from the K3 & P3.
Many do not send it any more and it the Model 15 just sits there piling up ink
at the end of a line. And please do not forget to send the line feed (LF)
character too as it needs it or it will print over the last line. TNX!
So the term is before computers and not from computer programmers, it is a
historical reference to the original TTY.
