Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I came across this today after having
struggled with it a few weeks prior.

The latest coronaTracker still suffers from the same issue when using
SyncTerm. On other t/e software (e.g. `zoc8`) it seems to do the proper mode
switch, but SyncTerm fails. 


This patch of ctracker_mystic.py, was a suitable workaround for me:

```
45c45
< text_file.write(ARFILE)
---
> text_file.write(ARFILE + '\033[0;0 D');
```

You make a similar change in one of your later posts, but this may be
something someone would want to consider if they just want to make the change
in the same py file. I haven't tested anything other than syncterm / zoc8. 

Apologies again - just fyi in case someone hits the same bug in the "new"
version.
