There is a small inconsistency between how C uses throwback and how the 
manual describes it. The manual says that the strings to be thrown should be
\0 terminated, but C throws \0a terminated (newline) strings instead.

I discovered this bug when one of my users complained that throwback didn't
work properly in StrongED 1.10. I had just made a testprogram that sent out
throwback messages according to the definition, and when everything seemed to
work, I released it. How was I to know that C hadn't read the same manual as
I did... B)

Fuck C anyway... (whoops, sorry about that..)
