CHRASC

 INTEGER FUNCTION  CHRASC (C)
 (ASCII Ordinal)

 Return the ordinal  position of  the single  character C  in the  ASCII
 character set.   For  ASCII machines,  this  function is  identical  to
 CHRORD, but for  non-ASCII machines  will be  different.  If  C has  no
 ASCII graphic equivalent, then the value -1 must be returned.
