| ASCIIvalues is a small program that displays the value of each key as you press it. It shows the ASCII character codes for alphabetic, numeric, and symbolic characters. ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. Computers can only understand numbers, so an ASCII code is the numerical representation of a character such as 'a' or '@' or an action of some sort. If someone says they want your CV in ASCII format, all this means is they want 'plain' text with no formatting such as tabs, bold or underscoring - the raw format that any computer can understand. This is usually so they can easily import the file into their own applications without issues. Most text editing programs will let you save a file as 'text only' (.txt).
