Hello,

please, how does one insert a ^A character when writing a text in (p9p) acme?
In vi(m) one uses ^V^A...

Thank you!
Ruda

acme doesn't know the difference between <compose>X001 and <ctl>a,
so you're going to have to sneak by the keyboard tricks and cut and paste.

i'd use "unicode 0x1".  then cut&paste.
