2. Control character - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_character

   In computing and telecommunications, a control character or non-printing character (NPC) is a code point in a character set that does not represent a written character or symbol. They are used as in-band signaling to cause effects other than the addition of a symbol to the text.

   Control-C is often used to interrupt a program or process, a standard that started with Dec operating systems. [citation needed] In TOPS-20, it was used to gain the system's attention before logging in. mIRC uses ETX as the escape character to start a command to set the color.

5. Unicode alias names and abbreviations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_alias_names_and...

   Next to this name, a character can have one or more formal (normative) alias names. Such an alias name also follows the rules of a name: characters used (A-Z, -, 0-9, <space>) and not used (a-z, %, $, etc.). Alias names are also unique in the full name set (that is, all names and alias names are all unique in their combined set).

6. C0 and C1 control codes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C0_and_C1_control_codes

   In 1973, ECMA-35 and ISO 2022 [18] attempted to define a method so an 8-bit "extended ASCII" code could be converted to a corresponding 7-bit code, and vice versa. [19] In a 7-bit environment, the Shift Out would change the meaning of the 96 bytes 0x20 through 0x7F [a] [21] (i.e. all but the C0 control codes), to be the characters that an 8-bit environment would print if it used the same code ...

   ISO 1745:1975 Information processing – Basic mode control procedures for data communication systems is an early ISO standard defining a Telex-oriented communications protocol that used the non-printable ASCII transmission control characters SOH (Start of Heading), STX (Start of Text), ETX (End of Text), EOT (End of Transmission), ENQ (Enquiry), ACK (Acknowledge), DLE (Data Link Escape), NAK ...

   Parameter 2: XX, Character name (e.g., SP), with link to appropriate article; Parameter 3: dd, Decimal character code, 1–3 digits (e.g., 32) For example, the first four ASCII control characters (Unicode U+0000 thru U+0003, decimal 0 thru 3) are coded as rows in a character set table like this:

9. 8-bit clean - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8-bit_clean

   Until the early 1990s, many programs and data transmission channels were character-oriented and treated some characters, e.g., ETX, as control characters.Others assumed a stream of seven-bit characters, with values between 0 and 127; for example, the ASCII standard used only seven bits per character, avoiding an 8-bit representation in order to save on data transmission costs.
