Sort of. [[:print:]] matches all the printable characters
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#Printable_characters

[[:graph:]] matches all the characters that are printable, but not
whitespace.

In POSIX/C locale, the only difference between [:graph:] and [:print:]
is that [:print:] contains space (0x20), and [:graph:] doesn't.
