<td colspan="5" class="print">The charstring definition today
says:<br />
"d) charstring: are types whose distinguished values are zero, one, or
more characters of the version of ISO/IEC 646 [11] complying with the
International Reference Version (IRV) as specified in clause 8.2 of
ISO/IEC 646 [11].<br />
NOTE 2: The IRV version of ISO/IEC 646 [11] is equivalent to the IRV
version of the International Reference Alphabet (former International
Alphabet No.5 - IA5), described in ITU-T Recommendation T.50 [16].<br />
    Values of charstring type shall be denoted by an arbitrary number
(possibly zero) of characters from the relevant character set, preceded
and followed by double quote (") or calculated using the predefined
conversion function int2char with the positive integer value of their
encoding as argument (see clause C.1).<br />
NOTE 3: The predefined conversion function is able to return
single-character-length values only.<br />
    In cases where it is necessary to define strings that include the
character double quote (") the character is represented by a pair of
double quotes on the same line with no intervening space
characters.<br />
EXAMPLE 4: The charstring "ab"cd" is written in TTCN-3 code as in the
following constant declaration. Each of the 3 quote characters that are
part of the string is preceeded by an extra quote character and the
whole character string is delimited by quote characters, e.g.<br />
var charstring vl_char:= """ab""cd""";"<br />
The ISO646 clause 8.2 is attached to this CR for information. The use of
control characters and DEL within the string is not specified (that are
unvisible in most editors, except HT).</td>

<td colspan="5" class="print">It would make sense to allow control
characters in the string (DEL is not a control character); they should
not be part of the string value but tools could use them to format the
string (e.g. breaking long pattern strings into lines). Alternatively
control characters could be disallowed but introduce another formatting
mechanism (e.g. concatenation) for string patterns.</td>

For me it would be ok to make this more explicit as suggested by Gyorgy.
E.g. as<br />
'Values of charstring type shall be denoted by an arbitrary number
(possibly zero) of graphical characters from the relevant character set,
preceded and followed by double quote ("). Graphical characters include
the range from SP(32) to TILDE (126).'</td>
