Hello everybody :)


There should be a head above the braid, too.. Ah well.. another time.. 
;)
(When I've learned how to do it.. ;)
 
                                     .

I didn't get the =b4's on the original message.  Just something else I
don't understand I guess?

Thanks a lot.. :)
Since my swedish keyboard has that char, I thought it was a standard
ASCII... will try to remember that..

It just goes to show that non-ASCII characters
can be interpreted correctly by some systems--
or not at all by others.

That is why we stick to the standard (ASCII) in this medium.

No, and ��� aren't standard ascii either... (BTW, MY Swedish keyboard
doesn't have that character. I had to copy-and-paste it to do a "search
and replace" of it...).

That's why we have an FAQ:

Hi Anna-  welcome to the group...
What are the =B4s in the pic?
Perhaps you might've used a non-ASCII character?

Ooops! You got some bad characters in there. Here's an attempt to fix
that:


                                     .
                                      `. `.   ,'  ,'

                                       .`,.'   ,'
                                       :  `. ;' ;
                                       `..  ;   ;
                                       .'`,'   ,'
                                       :   `..'.
                                       `..   ;  ;
                                       .' `.'  ,'
                                       :   `.;'.
                                       `..   ;  ;

                                       `.   `,;';
                                        .::::::;'
                                       :'      :
