Control codes are the ASCII chars between 0 and 32 which have special
functions (e.g. 7 makes a beep) if you use these in a pictures it
screws up some newsreaders which try to interperet the control codes
as instructions to do. For more info read the control code warning
that gets posted here weekly.
Hope this helps.
