Hi, Bill.

BG>FM> IMHO it's an SO2 smell, not H2S. FIM.

BG>Don't you mean SOý and HýS respectively?

Of course, if you happen to think that using superscripts is closer to

BG>Yeah, I know it should be subscripted, but these stupid fucking IBM
characte

Oh, you do know that! :-)

BG>sets only contain the superscript symbol for 2 (which,

BG>to some character <128, which will have ruined the whole
BG>bloody exercise anyway).  ;-)

As it happens, the superscripts came out just fine.

Regards, FIM.
