Mine does, which is why the question came up.

It seems to accept [0-9], but trying to set a breakpoint on some of
them causes problems, so effectively those are also out.
Otherwise, that agrees with my experience.
I now have a shell script that substitutes two letter sequences for
unaccepted characters. Awkward, but it should work.

Ah. I was thinking there was a way to define symbols within the
debugger. This works.
Thanks, that helps.
I now have a lot of what I need to generate an ASCII symbol table at
compile time.
