      MSGID: 2:20/228 01d1e408       In a message on 03-01-19 Maurice Kinal said to Holger Granholm:              Hi Maurice,               HG> Yes, that is true for letters but for various other characters        HG> the first byte is DA.              MK> The only characters that are prefixed (start) with DA, range from       MK> U+0680 (DA80) to U+06BF (DABF) and are all Arabic characters       MK> (letters).              I was probably confused when interpreting dec/hex conversion.              I was looking for the hyphen and citation characters and the euro sign.              Even though sitting with a hex/dec conversion table in front of me, I       can't get my brain to understand today.              With decimal interpretation I get the citation mark as 218 128 157.              MK> ... GrÃ¥t inte för mig jag har vi.              Nej, jag gr†ter inte och jag saknar inte vi |
