Notes:
Codes $00-$1F and $80-$9F are control codes. Printing them will cause a change in screen layout or behavior, not an actual character displayed.
Codes $60-$7F and $E0-$FE are not used. Although you can print them, these are, actually, copies of codes $C0-$DF and $A0-$BE.
Code $FF is the BASIC token of the π (pi) symbol. It is converted internally to code $DE when printed and, vice versa, code $DE is converted to $FF when fetched from the screen. However, when reading the keyboard buffer, you will find code $DE for Shift-↑ (up arrow) as no conversion takes place there yet.
