Looking through Appendix A of the X12.5 Interchange Control Structures
section of the X12 standards (4010), I cannot find the reference to the
caret (^) in any of the character sets. It does appear in section 5
(Recommendations for the Delimiters) as a potential data element separator.
It seems as if every other standard keyboard character is accounted for in
either the basic or extended character sets. I'm just curious if this was
an oversight or if it was left off intentionally.
Anyone on the committee wanna comment?
