Control characters: ESC & ^char
-
I want to be able insert ^char (control characters) in my batch file (including ESC)bolded text. How do I do that with Notepad++?

Hi,
using menu EDIT->CHARACTER PANEL opens the asccii window which
shows you the available chars and its values. By pressing left ALT key
and the needed number (from the number key pad) you will insert it.E.g ESC = ALT+27 and ^ = ALT+94
Cheers

Correction: ESC = ALT+027 and ^ = ALT+094

@Ken-Yiu Because this post keeps popping up as first search:
Notepad++ has a Character Panel
Edit > Character Panel
The panel should pop up on the left, and you can click on the 27 ESC row, make sure you click on the correct column. This will insert the escape character at the cursor.
