3 CONTROL CHARACTERS ____________________
Since standard keyboards on terminals have only a limited
number of control characters, FRESS reserves some characters to
indicate special command language functions and format codes.
must These characters ____ be used as specified below.
3.1 SUMMARY TABLE _________________
Figure 3.1 summarizes the definitions and conventions for
representing control characters literally in files, specifying
them in command lines, or in lines while in Input Mode.
Some characters always have special meanings (e.g., "%"), while
others have special meanings in Command Mode (e.g., "=") and
still others have special meanings only sometimes in Command
Mode (e.g., "&").
Any character which has a listing under "Literal Input" must be
entered into the file ______________________ using either the representation shown or
the special character code listed under "Sp Char Code" (other
optionally characters may __________ use their special character codes).
If the Literal Command explanation uses "<n>" (e.g., "<n>+1"),
it refers to <n> occurrences of the symbol.
If there is no entry under "Literal Command" or "Literal Input,"
the control character can be specified as any other character
would be.
