   Hey mark!   
      
    ml> i thought you were talking about an emoticon... that i character   
    ml> is not an emoticon ;)   
      
   Two of the 8 bytes are.  In fact the last trailing byte in each of the 32-bit   
   emoticons sent which is why I specifically picked those two emoticons since   
   they both end in 0x8d from an 8-bit perspective (eg "CHRS: CP437 2").  No?   
      
    ml> it seems to depend on the font used by the displaying tool   
      
   The empty recangular box would work for me.  However it should only print on   
   the screen and not replace the actual glyph (<-whatever) in the msg, or a   
   reply, containing that glyph.  That is why I no longer use msged for fidonet   
   messaging since it will corrupt utf-8 codes within quotes, whereas DOS-think   
   editors such as QEdit and uemacs simply return them unscathed, including the   
   infamous "loses an eye" character 0x8d.
