I've been trying to find out how to do that in the manuals, but I haven't found it yet. It seems like it might be something to do with SET TERM, but I don't see obvious flags for that. Can anybody offer any hints? I won't be too surprised if my eyes have already glided over the answer in the manuals and HELP SET TERM text.

set term/notypeahead
