- No, this is what puzzles me. The callback routines wait nicely for
- any queued serial IORequests, timer requests, etc. There are no
- critical resource accesses which are not protected by proper
- arbitration.

- The file transfer is entirely handled by the `term' main program.
- The only transfer-related co-task involved is the window update
- server which should not affect the file transfer as it only reads
- data but does not manipulate any. Besides: the co-task can be
- disabled (has anybody who had problems with the file transfer tried
- this at all?).

- I got it, but the escape control codes were filtered out :-(
