Yes, it does.

These are educated guesses, so I do stand to be corrected. I just
figured them out by having a look at the default chartab, since they
do seem to be self-explanatory for the most part. I've placed the
descriptions below the codes.

Binary control. These would be characters like ASCII 1-26.

White-space delimiter. I think the only one that exists is ASCII 32.

Alphabetic punctuation. These would be things like period, exclamation
point, question mark, ETC.

Alphabetic capital. In U.S. ASCII these would be 65-90.

Probably alphabetic. The opposite of A_CAP. In U.S. ASCII, these would be 97-122.

Binary symbol. These would be 130-255 in U.S ASCII. They're the
opposite of B_CAP_SYM (probably binary capital symbol), but don't ask
me what the difference between these 2 is. As far as I know, a binary
symbol is just a binary symbol.

Again, these are just educated guesses, so I do stand to be corrected,
but hth somewhat.
