Yes, table 8-3 on page 60, with discussion is what I am talking about.

Are there others?  Hmmmm... maybe!  Certinly the combinations one can embed
using the ^P is impressive ... for printer control, of course.

My objective of this discussion, as you may have already figured out, is to
rethink the basics ... yet again.

An interesting note to this ^Keys discussion has to do with a discussion we had
at our Saturday morning coffee get together this morning at San Francisco
Coffee & Tea, 1200 Contra Costa Blvd, Pleasant Hill, 9 AM - 11 AM (every Sat).
Seems some in attendance were moaning about how hard it was to remember
differences between Mac and DOS computers, Mac and DOS software, etc.  I, being
the know-it-all that I am, and thus the blunt of many a joke and odd-ball
comment, just could not hold myself back from recounting the past .. the then
and the now.  The better we understand the past the better we deal with the
present, and the better we are prepared to deal with the future.
