Yet another question:

I am currently using MEXPLUS, v1.65B.  All in all, it's a nice program,
except for one idiosyncracy.  When in terminal mode, certain characters
coming from the modem cause the program to go and try to access the disk.
This causes dropped characters, and some confusion on my end.

My question:  Why is MEXPLUS going to the disk at all?  There aren't any
commands that a remote can send to make this happen, are there?  At first,
I thought that maybe MEXPLUS was responding to a request for some kind of
Kermit exchange, but the manual makes no mention of any ability to sense an
impending transfer.

Help!  NightOwl's BBS seems to be down, and I don't have a current phone
number for them.

Thanks.
