You heard it wrong. Or they said it wrong. Or they said it right
and you interpreted it wrong. Man ascii:
The octal set:
030 can 031 em 032 sub 033 esc 034 fs 035 gs 036 rs 037 us
The hexadecimal set:
18 can 19 em 1a sub 1b esc 1c fs 1d gs 1e rs 1f us
The decimal set:
24 can 25 em 26 sub 27 esc 28 fs 29 gs 30 rs 31 us
So... Escape is 033 or 0x1b or 27. Not 33, not 027. Not 0x33 nor 0x27.
