Ontology	Electronic File Formats Character Encodings C1 controls

The C1 controls are the control characters (code positions 128-159 decimal) which are defined by ISO/IEC 6429:1992 and are part of the ISO-8859 encoding. They are also part of a number of other character sets derived from ASCII. They are not often used, and in otherwise equivalent Microsoft character sets (e.g., Windows 1252) they are replaced by printing characters.

NOTE: I'm cloning this from the C0 article and saving it occasionally. There will be gross errors till I'm done. Bear with me or dive in. --Gmcgath (talk) 12:34, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

Hex	Dec	Abbreviation	Name	Description and uses
80	128	PAD	Padding Character	Not part of ISO/IEC 6429.
81	129	HOP	High Octet Preset	Not part of ISO/IEC 6429.
82	130	BPH	Break Permitted Here	Follows a graphic character where a line break is permitted.
83	131	NBH	No Break Here	Follows a graphic character where a line break is not permitted.
84	132	IND	Index	Moves the active position one line down.
85	133	NEL	Next Line	Yet another line ending.
86	134	SSA	Start of Selected Area
87	135	ESA	End of Selected Area
88	136	HTS	Horizontal Tabulation Set	Sets a horizontal tab stop.
89	137	HTJ	Horizontal Tabulation with Justification	Sets a horizontal tab stop and indicates text should be justified out to the stop.
8A	138	VTS	Vertical Tabulation Set	Sets a vertical tab stop.
8B	139	PLD	Partial Line Down	Moves the active position down to a position suitable for subscripts, or undoes PLU.
8C	140	PLU	Partial Line Up	Moves the active position up to a position suitable for superscripts, or undoes PLD.
8D	141	RI	Reverse Index	Moves the active position one line up.
8E	142	SS2	Single-Shift 2	Indicates that the next code only should be interpreted in the G2 character set.
8F	143	SS3	Single-Shift 3	Indicates that the next code only should be interpreted in the G3 character set.
90	144	DCS	Device Control String	Introduces a device control sequence, which is terminated by ST (0X96).
91	145	PU1	Private Use 1
92	146	PU2	Private Use 2
93	147	STS	Set Transmit State	The third of the device-control codes; this one (CTRL-S, also known as XOFF) is often used to pause processes, devices, or output streams, with CTRL-Q (XON) resuming them (though in some cases, any keypress causes output to resume).
94	148	PCH	Cancel Character	The fourth device-control code; not used as much as DC1 or DC3. In DEC TOPS-20 mainframes, usually resulted in output of system status to terminal.
95	149	MW	Message Waiting	In transmission protocols, indicates a failure requiring a re-send, or a negative response to a query of whether the process is ready to proceed.
96	150	SPA	Start of Protected Area	Signals that a correction may now be received in synchronous transmission protocols.
97	151	EPA	End of Protected Area	Marks the end of a block of data divided into blocks for transmission.
98	152	SOS	Start of String	Cancels an operation and signals that previously-sent data can be disregarded.
99	153	SGCI	Single Graphic Character Introducer	Marks the end of a physical medium such as a data-storage tape.
9A	154	SCI	Single Character Introducer	Used to mark the spot where garbled, missing, or incomplete characters were received due to transmission errors, or various other uses involving place-holder characters. This character (Ctrl-Z) is also used by MS/PC-DOS to mark the end of a file or input stream, calling it EOF (although CTRL-D, EOT, would have been more standards-compliant and is used by Unix-style OSs for this purpose; however, some DEC operating systems used the CTRL-Z convention and this is what was followed by PC-DOS).
9B	155	CSI	Control Sequence Introducer	Mapped onto the ESC key on keyboards, this usually signals a user attempting to exit a menu or mode. It is also commonly used in printer and terminal control protocols to signal the beginning of a special "escape sequence" where immediately-following characters are interpreted as commands.
9C	156	ST	Operating System Command	Introduces an operating system command, which is terminated by ST (0X96).
9D	157	OSC	Group Separator	The second of four separator characters, subordinate to FS, but higher-level than RS and US.
9E	158	PM	Privacy Message	Introduces a privacy message, which is terminated by ST (0X96).
9F	159	APC	Application Program Command	Introduces an application program command, which is terminated by ST (0X96).
