It's not that. It's ASCII:

        C-@ -> \000 or NUL
        C-a -> \001
        C-b -> \002
        ...
        C-z -> \032
        C-[ -> \033
        C-\ -> \034
        C-] -> \035
        C-^ -> \036
        C-_ -> \037
        SPC -> \040

This has nothing to do with terminfo. The latter is for drawing and  
moving the cursor on an alpha-numeric text screen.

It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the  
impurities in our air and water that are doing it.
