>Description:
	
	The cu send function, `~[]>', always checks for echoed newlines
	regardless of the settings of the "echocheck" or "binary"
	variables. This is brain dead. It makes it impossible to flash a
	modem, for example. Moreover, any device that's not echoing characters
	isn't going to echo newlines, either!

	The cu man page incorrectly lists the variable as "echo-check."
	The `~[]v' command in cu gives it correctly as "echocheck," no
	hyphen.
>How-To-Repeat:
	
	Try to flash a modem using cu's "send" command, `~[]>'. 
>Fix:
	
	This worked for the purpose at hand. I'm not sure that it's exactly
	correct, though. I only use cu to talk to my modems, so I have no way
	of knowing if this does the right thing for uucp connections.
