[DGD] Sending telnet KEEPALIVE packets

Hi guys,

I've been asked by a user with a wonky connection if I could have the Mud
send them a periodic keepalive packet to avoid timing out.  I thought I'd
ask here about the best ways to do this.  I had a few questions:

- Is the keepalive character something a stock DGD driver will allow to go
through, or am I gonna have to hack around in comm.c again?

- Assuming I can send it with the driver, how would I specify this
sequence in LPC?  Is there an escape code for it?
