ECL supports all standard and semi-standard characters listed in Section 2.2.1 of [see Steele:84]. Non-printing characters have the following character codes.
| Character | Code (in octal)
|
| #\Null | 000
|
| #\Space | 040
|
| #\Newline | 012
|
| #\Backspace | 010
|
| #\Tab | 011
|
| #\Linefeed | 012
|
| #\Page | 014
|
| #\Return | 015
|
| #\Rubout | 177
|
Note that #\Linefeed is synonymous with #\Newline and
thus is a member of standard-char. Other semi-standard characters are
not members of standard-char.
