Re: [Axiom-developer] steps towards better TeXmacs interface

[Andrey G. Grozin]

I forgot to ask one more practical question. The prompt prefix and suffix 
will contain non-printable chars, \0x02 (ctrl-b) and \0x05 (ctrl-e). How 
can I include them in a boot string? Is literal embedding of these bytes 
inside a string enough? (in emacs, ctrl-q ctrl-something inserts the 
literal ctrl-something byte at the cursor position). Should it be prefixed 
by _ ? In common lisp this method works: any strange byte within a string 
will be printed, when the string is printed (I used this in the maxima 
source for communication with TeXmacs).
