> Which you can't type on a keyboard

Your keyboard doesn’t have the following keys?

ctl-\, ctl-], ctl-^, and ctl-_

Re: “symbolic” escapes, sure, but there’s always:

\x1c, \x1d, \x1e, and \x1f

Not everything can be a single character, there’s only 26 of those in the English language.

My system seems to terminate the program I'm typing into when I press Control-\. Also, with the default German kez^Hymap, I can't seem to type Control-^.

Try Ctrl+V first, if it's not been bound to paste. No idea how a german layout affects things though.
