hello everyone..,
i'm using ubuntu 8.04 OS. I'm not able to output the non-printable
ascii chatacters.
for eg.
printf("%c",1); // nothing is outputted.....
Well, presumably it's called a non-printable character because it
doesn't have a printing representation.

What do you want to see if it's non-printable? Use `isprint` to
find out if its printable or not, then decide how you want to
display a non-printing character.

#include <ctype.h>

void printCharSomehow( unsigned char ch )
{
printf( (isprint( ch ) ? "'%c'" : "char(%d)"), ch );
}
please check the below link..i want to print those symbols..

Please don't quote signatures. I snipped Chris' for you.

You do what you want, you need to change your printing
charset to ASCII. Whether this is possible is specific
to your implementation, as are details about how to do
so. /Why/ you would ever need to do so is debatable.

While we're on the meta stuff, your newsreader is removing References:

No, ASCII doesn't have a smiley at position 001. The cited table does
not accurately reflect the ASCII character set.

Thanks. I'll switch back to slrn (I was using Evolution and having
all sorts of minor problems, but this one takes the cake.)
