To be precise, see dgd/src/comm.c, the comm_write() function:

    } else if ((*p & 0x7f) < ' ' && *p != HT && *p != BEL && *p != BS) {

Anything under 32 except for:

   HT  a.k.a \011 a.k.a \r
   BEL a.k.a \007 a.k.a \a
   BS  a.k.a \010 a.k.a \b

Also allowed is \n of course, but that's dealt with a few lines before
that if-statement.
