Actually, ^G is BEL (just three characters). In order:
NUL, SOH, STX, ETX, EOT, ENQ, ACK, BEL, BS, HT, LF, VT, FF, CR, SO, SI,
DLE, DC1, DC2, DC3, DC4, NAK, SYN, ETB, CAN, EM, SUB, ESC, FS, GS, RS,
US, SP, and DEL.
Eight-bit ASCII (at least DEC's implementation) added:
IND, NEL, SSA, ESA, HTS, HTJ, VTS, PLD, PLU, RI, SS2, SS3, DCS, PU1, PU2,
STS, CCH, MW, SPA, EPA, CSI, ST, OSC, PM, and APC.

I rarely ever use anything other than ^S/^Q, except on a VTxxx terminal,
where I will in the odd instance use the "Hold Screen" key. I'll also
often use ^[ for ESC.
