I usually enter escape code in vi with this sequence:
CONTROL-X hh where "hh" is the two-digit hex
code of the keycode iso_8859_1
For example, the "esclamation mark reversed", used in spanish text,
is 0xa1 (hex=a1, decimal=161, octal=\241).
I can enter it now using C-X a1: ¡ (<---- saw you something?)
In my vi the code show simply as "\xa1".
Example: ^A (control-A) is 0x01; ^B is 0x02.
