O _ o DEL -.EE -.SH NOTES -.SS History -/etc/ascii (VII) appears in the UNIX Programmer's Manual. -.P -On older terminals, the underscore code is displayed as a left arrow, -called backarrow, the caret is displayed as an up-arrow and the vertical -bar has a hole in the middle. -.P -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. -.P -The ASCII standard was published by the United States of America -Standards Institute (USASI) in 1968. -.\" -.\" ASA was the American Standards Association and X3 was an ASA sectional -.\" committee on computers and data processing. Its name changed to -.\" American National Standards Committee X3 (ANSC-X3) and now it is known -.\" as Accredited Standards Committee X3 (ASC X3). It is accredited by ANSI -.\" and administered by ITI. The subcommittee X3.2 worked on coded -.\" character sets; the task group working on ASCII appears to have been -.\" designated X3.2.4. In 1966, ASA became the United States of America -.\" Standards Institute (USASI) and published ASCII in 1968. It became the -.\" American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1969 and is the -.\" U.S. member body of ISO; private and nonprofit. -.\" -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR charsets (7), -.BR iso_8859\-1 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-2 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-3 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-4 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-5 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-6 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-7 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-8 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-9 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-10 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-11 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-13 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-14 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-15 (7), -.BR iso_8859\-16 (7), -.BR utf\-8 (7) |
