CTRL+P is the default ``force'' character, used to tell tip
that the next character is literal data. You can set the force
character to any other character with the ~s escape, which
means ``set a variable.''
Type ``~sforce=<single-char>'' followed by a newline.
<single-char> is any single character. If you leave
out <single-char>, then the force character is the nul
character, which you can get by typing CTRL+2 or CTRL+SPACE. A
pretty good value for <single-char> is SHIFT+CTRL+6,
which I have seen only used on some terminal servers.
You can have the force character be whatever you want by
specifying the following in your $HOME/.tiprc
file:
force=<single-char>
