LISTS monitor command The LISTS command uses the following special methods to display certain characters in string values: l ASCII control characters (values 0 to 31 decimal) are displayed as two-character sequences, each consisting of a circumflex character ("^", 94 decimal) followed by the character with ASCII value equal to the actual control character plus 96 (decimal). For example, a carriage-return character (13 decimal) is converted to "^m" (13 + 96 = 109, which is the ASCII value for "m"). l A double quote character ("", 34 decimal) is displayed as "^". l A circumflex character ("^", 94 decimal) is displayed as "^^".
l A byte with the parity bit set (high-order bit of the 8-bit byte) is not distinguished by the LISTS command. That is, LISTS will display both $CHR(^B11000001) and $CHR (^B01000001) as "A". Example Display on the system terminal the value of the string variable "$message" and the text of the last error message.
