ER (EDIT_RAW) -- Insert raw character.
usage:  er nn


FORMAT

  ER nn


  The  ER  command  sends  a raw character to a program.  The single argument nn
  (required) is a one or two  character  hexadecimal  value  which  defines  the
  single  byte  sent  to  the  active program the next time the program requests
  input.  The data byte is not echoed anywhere on the display.  In effect,  this
  command delivers a single raw keystroke to a program.

  This  command can be used by programs that need to define keys to return known
  values for actions by the programs.

  This command differs from the other text insertion commands in  that  it  does
  NOT  insert  the hexadecimal character into an edit pad.  Its sole function is
  to pass a hexadecimal character to a running program.
