[comp.std.internat] Additional Control Characters

elwell@osu-eddie.UUCP (Clayton M. Elwell) (08/27/87)

The control characters with the 8th bit set are usually called the C1
set. In ANSI X3.64-1979 (and NAPLPS, as I remember), they are as
follows.  I don't know if this corresponds to an ISO standard, though
it's fairly likely.

Hex	ANSI	Name	Function
----------------------------------------------------------------
84	8/4	IND	Index
85	8/5	NEL	Next Line
86	8/6	SSA	Start of Selected Area
87	8/7	ESA	End of Selected Area

89	8/9	HTJ	Horizontal Tab with Justify
8A	8/10	VTS	Vertical tab Set
