[9fans] insert 'control a' into a text in acme

[Rudolf Sykora]

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!

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.

execute: unicode 10
and copy the output to where you need.
