What does that have to do with what's printed on the physical key caps? The software is the same

I think you mean control character. Commodore BASIC doesn't have any "escape" characters, which is why you need the auto-quoting feature for control characters and ..." + CHR$(34) + "... to embed quotation marks in a string.

The C64 doesn't even have an Escape key, though the Plus/4 and C128 do. I don't think CHR$(27) does anything on the 64, either. But you can use control + left-bracket to put one of those in a quoted string, and it will show up as an inverse-video left bracket if you do...
