Wash cucumber thoroughly.
Slice cucumber and onions to the same size (rather thin).
Sprinkle coarse salt over slices and let stand at least 3 hours. Drain.
Combine vinegar, sugar & seasoning, and bring to boil.
Add cucumbers and onions. Heat to simmering. Be careful to avoid boiling as that makes pickles soft.
Put into hot sterile jars and seal immediately.
