Re: Character code sets and all that

On this (EBCDIC) machine I got exactly the right sequence (encoded in
EBCDIC, of course), except the fact that you interverted SO and SI in
the first place. If you want to be really complete, you could also
include  ESC SPACE B , to announce that only G0 and G1 will be used,
that SO and SI will do the switch, and that columns 10 to 15 will
never be used.

Now this is just written for the sake of picking nits 8-). I am neither
advocating nor rejecting the use of this technique.         /AF
