Encoding special ascii characters

In BarcodeMaker, the caret character is used to escape ascii numbers if you want to encode a special character. For example, if you wanted to encode a line break, ascii character number 10, you would put "^010" into your data and a line break would be inserted.

So what if you want to actually encode the caret character itself?

If you want to encode a caret character, you can't put the caret character in your data directly, because BarcodeMaker expects three digits to always follow. Instead, you have to put ^094 (94 is the ascii number for a caret).
