 [ thanks to all who enlightened me - here's the combined wisdom of the net ]

 There is no control-~ character in ASCII.  The only non alphabetic
control characters are @,[,\,],^,_
Use CMD-space to generate the null (^@ is what you wanted)
Use CMD-6 to get out of Telnet (is this why you wanted CMD-~)
  [,],\ are just as you'ld expect.
  ^_ is generated by command-/
  ^^ is generated by command-6 (not command-shift-6 for some reason)


[ hope someone else is glad I asked ]
