I'm trying to get back to work on the Rebloom Checklist update and am
running into some character conversion "typos" that maybe one of you can
help me with offlist. The text has probably gone from Mac to PC
(possibly back and forth a few times <g>) and seems to have lost correct
formatting for some of the ASCII characters, especially those that are
'foreign' language characters - diacritical marks etc, as well as
fractions and some other odds and ends. I can't always guess what the
character is supposed to be.
An example
<B<K? >
seems to be a dimension. In context
<purple B<K? band and center line>
Sometimes, there are similar oddball things in the archived messages
here and in the online checklist, usually where hyphens or quotation
marks are used. Anything not a regular upper or lowercase letter, or
number.
Is there a lookup table where I can decipher this stuff?
