The program reads from standard input and writes to standard output, replacing
non-printing characters with printable equivalents. Control characters print as
a carat (“^”) followed by the character “@” through “_” corresponding to the
character replaced (e.g. control-X becomes “^X”). The delete character (0x7F)
becomes “^?”. Characters with the high bit set (>127) are printed as “M-”
a carat ('^') followed by the character '@' through '_' corresponding to the
character replaced (e.g. control-X becomes '^X'). The delete character (0x7F)
becomes '^?'. Characters with the high bit set (>127) are printed as 'M-'
followed by the graphical representation for the same character without the
high bit set.
