I think the reason you had a problem as the underscore. Here's what you had for code:

SET VIS.OPT.UNDERSCORE$ = "_"
SET VIS.OPT.US$ = "@1F@"

Here's what the compiler was seeing:

SET VIS.OPT.UNDERSCORE$ = "SET VIS.OPT.US$ = "@1F@"

Throw in a !, and it saw this:

SET VIS.OPT.UNDERSCORE$ = "! SET VIS.OPT.US$ = "@1F@"

No matter how you look at it, once the compiler saw the closing quotes, it didn't know what to do with the @1F@ after that.

If you just changed that underscore to anything else, the next line should have worked. But like Grant said, use the @5F@ (Chr 95). @1F@ (chr 31) seems to be a graphics character.
