[EMBOSS] Jemboss - nondisplay of files in File Manager

[Aengus Stewart]

Hi,

I have just solved an unusual problem that a user had.

He could see his files on the server at the command line but not through the Jemboss File Manager.  If he created a new file through Jemboss it appeared in the File Manager until refresh was hit - where upon it disappeared!

I have worked out he had a number of files that started with the control char - \033 which is Escape and when Jemboss got hold of it cleared the File Manager display.

Dont know if other CTRL chars have same effect though............
