The char column is keyboard independant, it is the standard encoding of
fonts on the mac obtained by:

for i = 128 to 255
? chr$( i)
next

if you'll excuse the pun - you can't get more basic than that! i
specifically avoided giving the keycodes as those are platform dependant.

however, what you see in my post is very likely not what you get when
running as i clearly advised in my mail - i had to code my mail in unicode -
and not all mail clients will accept that charset, mailservers also may
convert it to default latin-1, and also 'eat' [mangle?] 'unauthorised'
chars.
