Sometimes used to describe what communications people call "shift characters", such as the ESC that leads control sequences for many terminals, or the level shift indicators in the old 5-bit Baudot codes. 3. In personal communication, using methods other than electronic mail, such as telephone or snail-mail. 4.   (software)   Values returned by a function that are not in its "natural" range of return values, but rather signal some kind of exception.
