I didn't mean ^? (DEL); I just hadn't looked up which character was
vertical tab and forgot to fill it in before sending. I should have
written ^I (HT: horizontal tab, or TAB), ^J (LF: line feed, or newline),
^L (FF: form feed), ^M (CR: carriage return), and ^K (VT: vertical tab);
one out of five ASCII abbreviations isn't bad, is it?
