Tom, we have to use that trick because Desterm 2.00 doesn't support 
hardware flow control. When receiveing data there is no problem, but 
when uploading a file, any character 19 will make the modem to freeze. 
Even Ymodem or Xmodem protocols can trigger that when they arrive to 
block 19. That's why we have to go to command mode and disable flow 
control in the modem before uploading. I changed the escape character to 
"@" because the default, "+", was making some remote modems to also go 
into command mode.
