This is a problem I have been thinking about.This Wikipedia page suggests that Ctrl+{Symbol} uses the shifted variant of {Symbol} when written in Caret notation.This suggests that CTRL+\ becomes ^| (instead of ^\) in Caret notation and CTRL+4 becomes ^$ (instead of ^4).But this assumes an American keyboard layout. How does this apply to keyboards layouts from other countries that have different layouts?I am wondering if there is a standard way to write symbols in Caret notation. It seems like Caret notation does not make very much sense when you consider keyboard layouts with other symbol locations that what English keyboards use.
Is CTRL+4 equal to ^4 or ^$ in caret notation?
