      I am not sure of any exact definition of ASCII
other than the original for    teletype   machines. :-)

: I've been under the impression that ASCII is universal.

      It is a standard, but a large number of
users at colleges and large companies use unix
work stations and may use "tin", "nn", "rn",
etc. to read, and "vi", "pine" or "pico" to
write and reply to messages.
      These programs just contain what the 
author put in them, and may incluse or exclude
any ASCII number.   I suppose there were many
keyboards that don't have the character, some
of my keyboards have it in different places,
if you are talking about the reverse single
quote mark.

:  I don't recall this problem occuring before.
: Are there others who don't see the grave character ```````````?

      The most frequent error I see is the TAB
character, it is not universal, and really messes
up an ASCII Art display.

: that would certainly influence those of us who
: make the ASCII art pics...

       Thank you very much. :-)
