    Do you know how to insert a Ctrl-A code aka “^A” in Midnight Commander in Linux? I’ve tried different ways and nothing works for me. Thanks.

    I've never used Midnight Commander. I did a quick Internet search and found this:
    https://midnight-commander.org/wiki/doc/editor/hotkeys

    It looks like Meta+q is used to insert a literal character and there's even a table at the bottom of the page which shows:

    01 1 Meta+q,a

    (ASCII 1 is Ctrl-A)
