Specifying Characters

There are various ways in which you can specify a particular character. For example,
the ESC character can be specified using any one of the following five entries:

_027

Decimal value (underscore character followed by a 3-digit number).

\033

Octal value (backslash character followed by a 3-digit number).

\u001B

Unicode value (backslash and u characters then unicode value).

^[

Control key value (^ represents the control key on the keyboard).

\e

Additional value for ESC.

The following 'backslash' values can be used:

\u Unicode introducer

\r Carriage return

\n Line feed

\e Escape

Note that as the \ and ^ characters are used as value introducers, to enter these as
character values you need to precede them with a backslash character, i.e. enter \ as \\
and ^ as \^.

The Euro character can be specified by entering the unicode value \u20ac.
