This evening I tried sending a file to another machine with CU, and
encountered a nasty problem that has existed since 3.1:

~%debug
~%put file.c
call tilda(%put file.c)
call _dopercen("put file.c")
call _mode(2)
stty -echo;(cat - >file.c)||cat - >/dev/null;stty echo
r
 Can't transmit special character `012'
call _mode(1)
+
File transmission interrupted
after 4 bytes
4 characters
$

The first few characters of this particular file were
slash star newline space star newline space star, ie,
/*
 *
 *  stuff...

Very odd that CU won't send newlines!

This problem exists (at least) on a PI (4D/25) running 3.2.1
Another one for the E-mail hotline.
