ASCII fades
I'm completely new to the ASCII world but i've noticed that some programs (like the dos prompt) support ASCII caracters into the 200's. For example: Go to dos and hold ALT and type in 176 on the key pad and release alt. Why is it that no ASCII chart shows these symbols? Does anyone know of a chart with these symbols? Thanks in advance, Dan Martin
