Class is unified with the current lexical character class of Char.
Char must be an integer in the range 0 to 255 (an escaped ASCII code is also acceptable, eg 0'a = 98).
The following table lists the character classes and the corresponding default characters:
Class Default member characters --------------------------------------------------------- upper-case all upper case letters underline - lower-case all lower case letters digit digits blank-space space and nonprintable ASCII characters end-ofline carriage return and line feed atom-quote ' string-quote " list-quote radix ascii solo ( ) ] } special ! , ; [ { | line-comment % escape \ first-comment / second-comment * symbol # + - . : < = > ? @ ^ ` ~ & $ unused ASCII codes 8, 17, 21, 24 null null character
