NOTES: 

--------------------------------------

1- The printer acts on the special characters, 000 to 031 so I have

      removed them.

2- You can use the special characters from COPY CON at the command line

      or from the Editor. 

   To produce a character, hold down the alternate key and enter a code 

      number on the NUMERIC KEYPAD (numlock on). 

   NUMERIC KEYPAD are the keys like a calculator. 

   Examples:  [Alt]+[172] to get [¬]  

              [Alt]+[159] to get [Ÿ]

              [Alt]+[155] to get [›]



3- Meanings of the special non printable characters.

Java supplies a primitive data type, called char, whose values include all 65535 characters of the Unicode character set. This set of characters contains not only all characters used in the English alphabet, but also characters used in other Romanised alphabets such as the æ diphthong; and also the characters which are required for non-Romanised alphabets such as Arabic and the ideographs used by languages such as Chinese and Japanese.

The first 128 characters of the Unicode standard are exactly the same as the 128 characters of the ASCII character set, and the first 256 characters are exactly the same as the Latin-1 character set which is given in Table A4.1. Each entry in the table shows the ordinal number of the character in the range 0 to 255, the appearance of the character if any and a name for the character.
