I'm trying to compile a list of the special characters that you can type in the script editor, to put on the [Special Characters][] wiki page.
Can you guys help me out here?

| I know you can do the esc button, but I always forget what it is. |

From a core script
-- Hotkeys local escKey = string.char(27)
-Mew903, 4 Days Left. Every day I'm shuffling. Sorcus's Ban Hammer hurts more than others. |

| @blewm: That's not at all what I mean. Take another look at the wiki page. What I'm interested in is the key shortcuts. I don't really need the ascii values. |

| Doesn't SHIFT+ESC give you the esc key? |

CTRL+K does something. VT. Dunno what it means.

Of all things that you could be doing (documenting new objects and methods, and creating better tutorials, and explaining existing APIs), you're going to list some weird characters that show up in the "code editor" (text editor with syntax highlighting) in Roblox Studio?
Is there some significant relevance in this topic that I am unaware of?? I honestly don't see why the topic would even warrant a page.. |

| Comparing against keyboard events. DC1 through 4 represent the arrow keys. |

You'd really suggest using "{untypable character}" in a script instead of string.char(19) ?
On the other hand, this is a game so if looking for keyboard shortcuts is what interests you, I fully support your right to explore that option.
And as also, if someone can provide concrete information that is missing in the wiki, I'll put it on there.

No, I guess it's probably a bad idea. I have used the `DC1-4` characters before to handle arrow keys though. The best solution, of course, would be to define
local arrow = { up = string.char(17), down = string.char(18), right = string.char(19), left = string.char(20) }
And then compare against `arrow.up` and the likes. |

I looked it up in Google. I found a list that has all the same shortcut keys.
Its supposed to be: [Ctrl] + [Shift] + T = (DC4)
I don't think Roblox added the shortcut keys for it. Sorry I don't post a link to the page. Roblox Rules and all.
Have A Great Day! :-D
