I've tried different ways and nothing works for me. Thanks.              as noted in one of the dove-net areas, this depends on which editor you are       using with midnight commander... if you are using mcedit, you use CTRL-Q...              eg: CTRL-Q CTRL-A              will put the actual ^A character into the file... you'll see it as ^A but it       will be a different color and will act as one character...              if you are using another editor like vi, vim, emacs, joe or similar, they will       have their own method if they allow for such characters to be manually       entered...                     )\/(ark       --- SBBSecho 3.10-Linux        * Origin: SouthEast Star Mail HUB - SESTAR (1:3634/12)       SEEN-BY: 1/120 123 14/6 18/0 90/1 116/116 123/0 25 50 115 120 150       SEEN-BY: 123/170 755 129/215 135/300 153/7715 154/10 30 40 700 203/0       SEEN-BY: 221/0 1 6 242 360 227/114 201 400 229/101 275 310 426 452       SEEN-BY: 229/616 981 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 261/38 280/464       SEEN-BY: 280/5003 292/854 317/3 320/219 322/757 335/364 342/200 423/81       SEEN-BY: 633/0 267 280 281 384 410 412 414 509 640/1138 1321 1384       SEEN-BY: 712/848 3634/0 12 15 27 50 119       PATH: 3634/12 154/10 221/6 1 640/1384 633/280 229/426           |
