Hello Klaus,

From the KEY SHORTCUTS section of the manpage for cssh:

You can disable this by editing ~/.clusterssh/config and explicitly
setting key_quit to be undefined - that is:

> key_quit=

With that change, ctrl-q/ctrl-s are working for me.

I agree that it's probably not a great choice by upstream.  However, I'm
wondering how far back you have to go for a version of clusterssh that
doesn't accept control-q as the exit command. I tested with 4.03.03-1
(in stable) and the behavior is the same as with the current version.

In any event, I think this is probably a normal/wishlist bug to ask
upstream to change the default.

Cheers,
tony
