Re: Using non-printable characters in passwords

["Jay Woody" <jay_woody () tnb com>]

Here is a listing of the alt keys.  I think there are hundreds out there
just like this.

Maybe this will give you some of the keys, you are looking for.

Although I very much value the 4 responses I have received so far, I
think
I should clarify my original question better:

Are there any other keys (or combination thereof) besides, CTRL or
ALT,
that can be used?

Another question, it is possible to use CTRL + ALT +  <key>  at the
same time?   Where, obviously, <key> != DEL     :p

Third question:  Any good docs on CTRL combinations?

Right now Im limited to ^n  (avoiding ^a ^c ^e ^h ^i ^j ^m ^q ^s ^u ^?
etc. for obvious UNIX reasons)


Thanks again.
