Hi Daryl,

HG>So do I. Now I type AltGr 219 =  and AltGr 176 =  and probably you see
HG>them as you mentioned above.

DS>   I see them in OLX -- Windows Notepad apparently won't handle the
DS> high ascii characters.

I haven't checked how the Notepad works in Win10 but in XP it faithfully
read PC8 (ASCII) characters, while Word or any other Windows editor did
not show, for example the european accented letters correctly.

As you are using OLX you see these characters , , ,  correctly
as I have entered them on the keyboard.

I can (could) read/print out a file containing those letters corectly in
the old Notepad.
