true enough -- but there doesn't appear to be anything that handles the old 2-to-3-character names (ACK, NAK, XOFF, DEL, et cetera). i have a need for these short versions.
are you suggesting that it's not worth wasting time on a cpan module for this? or that it should be folded into or namespaced under charnames? if neither of the above, suggestions for an appropriate module name are welcome..
call the module "ASCII::TTYish" and have it import all the old names as constant functions.
