Ah Trouble,

You'll also find that you can't ring the terminal bell under Windows
with a print,String(7B) either. The IDL Development environment
captures
non-printable character codes and displays them as the vertical bar
character
in the Output Log. Same diff for the Backspace/Delete control code.

But if you ask Dr Fanning nicely, he'll give you a routine to ring the
bell
under Windows anyway.

Suggest you pester RSI with a Software Change Request to allow at least
a few
of the common control codes to work correctly under IDLDE.
