sending @ symbol to the command line

hello gents
Im working on a program to act as a keypad

im using the follow example code to send the numbers to the acad command line and it works
however im not able to get the "@" symbol to be sent to the acad command line.

would anyone have any suggestions on how to achieve this?
any help is appreciated

(defun c:KEYPAD_Form1_TextButton1_OnClicked (/)

  (COMMAND ".75")

 (PRINC)

)

Hello, please try (dcl_sendstring "@0.75"). I cannot test it at this time.

Hi Fred,
Thanks for the reply
I tried the sendstring function, and that didnt work.
all i get is:

Command: L
LINE Specify first point:
Specify next point or : T

Point or option keyword required.

the way im using it works for my needs but im just unable to get just the "@" symbol to work
or any symbol for that matter.
