Tips
As a text item, CHARACTER can persist on the status line. (See
“Persistent” in this section.)
Your terminal might be capable of displaying more than the basic
95 characters of the ASCII seven-bit character set. The following is a list
of this set:
20-2f !"#$%&' ()*+,-./
30-3f 01234567 89:;<=>?
40-4f @ABCDEFG HIJKLMNO
50-5f PQRSTUVW XYZ[\]^_
60-6f `abcdefg hijklmno
70-7f pqrstuvw xyz{|}~
The eight-bit hex a0-ff can also be displayed using the graphics that
your terminal defines for them, if any. Often these are the same as the
seven-bit code shown previously.
