I've been working on a BASIC program that translates Wildcat! screens to MEC
which I then run through MECCA. Anyway the ^D character (among others) has
special meaning to Maximus and has been causing me problems. I tried the
using the [repeat][1] but this resulted in the string "" which wasn't
quite what I had in mind. ;-)
