The formatting of the ASCII table in the first appendix has two problems:

* It is meant to be two tables side-by-side, by the table layout suggests
  that it is a single table. This is confusing: it suggests e.g. that
  NUL and @ are the same character with two different codes.

* It produces these warnings during the build:

The attached patch converts it to a single table and uses TeXinfo markup.

Yes, the resulting layout is not as pretty. But if you want more pretty
layout of tables, you should work on that with the TeXinfo team, not use
special characters in fixed-width fonts as a substitute.
