The following character names must be present in all
conforming implementations:
- Newline
-
The character that represents the division between lines.
An implementation must translate between #\Newline,
a single-character representation, and whatever external representation(s)
may be used.
- Space
-
The space or blank character.
The following names are semi-standard;
if an implementation supports them,
they should be used for the described characters and no others.
- Rubout
-
The rubout or delete character.
- Page
-
The form-feed or page-separator character.
- Tab
-
The tabulate character.
- Backspace
-
The backspace character.
- Return
-
The carriage return character.
- Linefeed
-
The line-feed character.
In some implementations,
one or more of these character names
might denote a standard character;
for example,
#\Linefeed and #\Newline might be the same character
in some implementations.
