   God afton Maurice,   
      
    HG> I was looking for the hyphen and citation characters and the   
    HG> euro sign.   
      
   MK> The unicode for it is "U+20AC" which is a 24 bit character and thus   
   MK> will show up as three hex characters in a hex editor; e2 82 ac   
      
   OK, the code 218 128 162 that i interpreted as hyphen actually is the   
   longer 'dash'.   
      
   Thanks for the correction.   
      
   MK> Does that help?  I am not sure which 8 bit encoding has the euro   
   MK> sign other than latin9 and there it is a4 which is dec 164.   
      
   Yep it did, thanks. The IBM kbd and CP book of 1996 doesn't help but in   
   the OS/2 FP15 the euro symbol is included as kbd 'right Alt and 5'.   
      
   MK> It doesn't exist in either cp437 or cp850.  Both the MS encodings   
   MK> cp1250 and cp1252 show it as dec 128.   
      
   Simple, the Euro didn't exist then and dec 128 is a close interpretation   
      
    HG> With decimal interpretation I get the citation mark as 218 128   
    HG> 157.   
      
   Yes, I did have that correct.   
      
   MK> Converting e2 82 ac to decimal gives me 226 130 172.   
      
   Yep that's the normal hyphen.   
      
      
   God natt min v„n,   
      
   Holger   
      
      
   .. I know the answer, as long as you ask the right question.
