> Cygwin also generates NUL: Thanks for checking! NULs were used as fill characters to throttle down the line speeds, and were supposed to be ignored in both hardware and software... I guess with the software terminal emulators (such as MinTTY/Windows console/and such), that depends on settings as to what is passed through to the applications, and what is just dropped and ignored... So checking the terminal properties may be indicated in this case. Also, Windows console seems to have "Enable Ctrl-key" property that is said to possibly interfere with the applications -- and maybe Ctrl-Space is one of those keys, so try to uncheck it to see if that helps.
