So years ago, in the days of dialing up to a BBS, I recall downloading either Darkstar BBS or maybe it was the graphical client that connected to it. I recall there being a batch file that, in certain conditions, would echo a single character (if I'm remembering correctly) to a new file named reboot.com and then would execute that file and the computer would reboot. I think it was one of the line drawing characters, like what you'd get if you press alt-183, but I don't recall the exact character and I'm having trouble finding the software, because it might have been the beta software that never got officially released.
Does anyone know of this trick, and what character that would be?
