insert-ascii

Insert an ASCII character into the buffer.

Alt-#

The command prompts for a numeric value, then inserts the ASCII character with that value into the buffer. By default, it interprets the number as a decimal value. To specify a hex value, prefix the number with the characters "0x". To specify an octal value, prefix the number with the characters "0o". To specify a binary value, prefix the number with the characters "0b". You can also specify a character using the syntax <Newline> or <Square Root> for any Unicode character name, with completion.
