I don't really understand why there's no way to send a NUL char (0x00) using a .ttl macro. It seems like I can only do it by sending a binary file. The device I'm working with requires that data is sent in hex or binary format, so I need to be able to send a NUL char to it. Otherwise, it won't work properly. I think this would be vary useful to those who would like to use Tera Term for sending and receiving binary data in hex. Thanks.

Note: you can send null characters using the send command, but you can't assign them to a string (which probably interprets the null char as a terminator)

For example, this works: send $06$00$09$00$01 But this does not: mystr = $06$00$09$00$01

In general, teraterm could really use a binary string buffer as a variable type because so much protocol work involves sending/receiving/processing binary data.
