<@CHAR>
Syntax
<@CHAR CODE=number [ENCODING=encoding]>
Description
Returns the character that has the ASCII value number.
This meta tag is especially useful for specifying non-printing characters, such as linefeeds (<@CHAR CODE=10>), carriage returns (<@CHAR CODE=13>), and tabs (<@CHAR CODE=9>). Valid values for the number attribute are 1 through 254.
Note:
Numbers above 127 return
different characters depending on the character encoding standard used
by the operating system on the computer where Tango Server is running.
The number attribute may be a literal value or a meta tag that returns a number.
