vi : inserting non-printing characters
I am trying to edit a syslinux msg file. I want to precede color codes with control characters. I have tried insert mode, then control v followed by the color code; however, I continue to get " [O " if I type the color code or enter ESC mode. How can I just insert say " ^L " ?

o $g
- A color value, between 0 and 1000, for the green component.
o $b
- A color value, between 0 and 1000, for the blue component.

not have color changing capabilities.
