Hey mark!

It cannot be done in CP437.  The experiment was to see what BBBS would map it
out to as that would tell the tale about what LATIN-1 truly is as far as it is
concerned.  From what I could tell it really is ISO-8859-1 despite that LATIN-1
is *NOT* an alias for it and never was or will be.  Now I read that HTML5 is
replacing it with CP1252 since over 90% of users actually are using CP1252
whether or not they know that they are.

Life is good,
Maurice
