If you are on 64-bit Windows or Windows 2008 there are some gotchas that can
make FTP hang - in part as UniVerse is a 32-bit shell.
The Microsoft FTP client interacts directly with the keyboard buffer
I wondered about that too and googled around. Simple answer: Services can have
access to a desktop, but it isn't the same as any user's desktop. Apparently
there are some things that a process can do that require a desktop that nobody
needs to see. SQL server uses this for task synchronization.

Or you can have a listening program running on your
desktop, and the server can connect to it and tell it
to open desktop windows.

From DOS/Windows days, which also uses the same /c (argument), I just

The DOS command in Universe takes a /c argument and then you can specify a
bat file like
DOS \c test.bat
What does \c mean? Are there other
An educated guess would be that the DOS command invokes the command
processor (command.com in long-ago Windows, cmd.exe now) and passes the
\c (or is it /c?) to it.
If in Windows you open a CMD prompt, and type
cmd /?
you can see what options it accepts. My output includes:
/C
The /c is to close the command session when the supplied
process/batchfile completes. This returns you back to your originating
session of Universe.
