ASCII(7)                   Linux Programmer's Manual                  ASCII(7)

NAME
       ascii - ASCII character set encoded in octal, decimal, and hexadecimal
DESCRIPTION
       ASCII is the American Standard Code for Information Interchange.  It is
       a 7-bit code.  Many 8-bit codes (such as ISO 8859-1, the Linux  default
       character  set)  contain  ASCII as their lower half.  The international
       counterpart of ASCII is known as ISO 646.
       The following table contains the 128 ASCII characters.
       C program '\X' escapes are noted.

NOTES
   History
       An ascii manual page appeared in Version 7 of AT&T UNIX.
       On older terminals, the underscore code is displayed as a  left  arrow,
       called  backarrow, the caret is displayed as an up-arrow and the verti-
       cal bar has a hole in the middle.
       Uppercase and lowercase characters differ by just one bit and the ASCII
       character  2  differs from the double quote by just one bit, too.  That
       made it much easier to encode characters mechanically or  with  a  non-
       microcontroller-based electronic keyboard and that pairing was found on
       old teletypes.
       The ASCII standard was published by the United States of America  Stan-
       dards Institute (USASI) in 1968.
