[GreenKeys] M28 features for RTTY operation today?

[Nick England]

My understanding is that no incoming characters are lost. The auto CR/LF
function is entirely mechanically initiated at the 80th (or whatever)
character position. The process does not involve any incoming characters,
just the same levers used for Local CR and Local LF.
Of course, incoming character(s) may get printed in the wrong place while
the typebox is moving back to the beginning of the next line.
