This is architecture dependent: on VMS it's (characters(ictrl_g))[1:1]

Alternatively, the EDT/TPU sequence Gold Specins 7 (PF1 KP3 7 I think),
although I preferto avoid embedding special characters.

Never tried inserting bells, but I know that to get Quick to leave escape
sequences alone (eg to bold certain words in a field), you need TERM=VT420-ANY
on the command line.
