   And in this case it paid off.  I wasn't aware of the 0x8d being used the way   
   it apparently is being used (EOL) although I do recall from back in the   
   so-called "good old days" IBM using 0x85 for a '\r\n' replacement.  I haven't   
   actually run across anything that uses it but have seen more than a few   
   references to 0x85 and IBM.   
      
    ml> like back in the w95 and KA9Q days ;)   
      
   It goes further back than that.  More around 89-91-ish.  If I am not mistaken   
   uEmacs was a Finnish programmers idea for making DOS more Unixie and the   
   latest release was sometime around 1991.  I think Nancy's version was   
   earlier.  Anyhow it definetly is a keeper given how well it still works and I   
   can understand her reluctance to upgrade.  Also I think hubby hacked it a bit   
   if I recall correctly.
