But 32-126 are considered the _subset_ of ASCII usable for art, because too many newsreaders and file viewers can not handle the 0-31 and 127 properly. > rather than such as VT100 or ANSI? VTxx0 and ANSI are terminal control sequences, not characters at all. Equally PC-473 (often miss-called ANSI or DOS) and ISO-8859-x and ISO-10646-UTF-8 are expanded character sets with 128-255 and as such are not wellcome, because many newsreaders and file viewers do not understand them. -- Neil Franklin, nei...@franklin.ch.remove http://neil.franklin.ch/
