This HELP file is about escape commands used on terminals which are NOT
Stanford displays (Data Disc, III, or Datamedia).  Type HELP TTY to see
more information about terminals in general.

The character ↑←  (octal 37, ASCII control-underscore,  or control-leftarrow
or  control-slash  on  some  keyboards) is  used  as  a  prefix  for special
commands,  like ESC  on a  display.  The  ↑← character  is not  echoed.  The
following commands are now defined:

  ↑←↑B     send an α (alpha, ↑B) to input buffer
  ↑←↑C     send a β (beta, ↑C) to input buffer
  ↑←↑O     send a ∂ (partial-sign, ↑O) to input buffer
  ↑←↑U     send a ∃ (there-exists, ↑U) to input buffer
  ↑←↑Z     send a ≠ (not-equal) to input buffer
  ↑←↑←     send an ∨ (or-sign, ↑←) to input buffer

  ↑←-      negate arg for following command
  ↑←0:↑←9  decimal arg for following command

  ↑←↑W     delete the last word on the input line
  ↑←C      add CONTROL (200) bit to the next character
  ↑←D      add Double-bucky (CONTROL-META, 600) bits to the next character
  ↑←F      full character set
  ↑←H      hide terminal
  ↑←I      interrupt program
  ↑←L      delete back to next character typed
  ↑←M      add META (400) bit to the next character
  ↑←N      No-op, but undo pending bucky bits
  ↑←R      redraw the current input line
  ↑←V      force a FILES command
  ↑←W      force a TTY WHO command
  ↑←X      control XTIME, like ESC X on display
  ↑←Z      enable automatic beeping, like ESC Z on display

A more complete description of these escape commands is in Section 3.1
of the Monitor Command Manual, MONCOM.BH[S,DOC] online.
